    Would you make this trade

    KC's Branden Albert for our #17?

    Albert is rumored to be leaving KC. Miami is the likely destination. Would you try to step in and get him for our LT?

    I think that given the lack of elite talent in this draft I would jump at this trade.

      I'd make the trade on talent, but the money is a killer.

                  Agree, the contract would be too much. Dolphins reportedly only giving a 2nd. Maybe that's why talks are ongoing.

                  2. Jordan Matthews WR Vanderbilt

                  4. Arthur Lynch TE Georgia
                  5. Ross Cockrell CB Duke
                  5. (comp) Derrick Hopkins DT Virginia Tech
                  6. Josh Mauro DE Stanford
                  6. (comp) Shaquil Barrett OLB Colorado State
                  7. Quincy Enunwa WR Nebraska

                      You could have had Jake Long for roughly the same money and no draft compensation in free agency. We kicked those tires apparently, but our cap situation would not allow it, so this is certainly way out of the realm of possibility.
                      Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

                      Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

                      We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

                      We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

                          I'd bring back Max again and let someone develop.

                              No, and it was stated already that they would take a 2nd for him.

                                  I wouldn't make that trade. We have two highly drafted Ts on the team now. We need to let them play...even if there are growing pains.

                                          Agreed. Never understood the Steelers hate for Starks.
