    After leapfrogging the picks of so many others throughout this process, it is only right that my final pick gets leapfrogged twice before I can make it. Karma's a bee-yotch. Oh well.

    The Packers addressed their LB corps twice already with Shazier inside in round 1 and Bradford outside in round 3, with TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins also added in round 2. With their 3rd round comp pick, they are tempted to go back to the offensive side again to give Aaron Rodgers yet another weapon, since they lost James Jones this offseason and Greg Jennings last offseason (Jarvis Landry and local boy Jared Abbrederis are mighty tempting). However, Pack's biggest need right now appears to be at safety. Need didn't match value in earlier rounds, but it's time to fill that position.

    The Green Bay Packers select:

    USC FS Dion Bailey



    Thanks again, everyone for contributing and making this a fun exercise yet again! I suppose we'll do it again next year (hopefully back in April again, and not even later in May as the NFL is possibly suggesting).
    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.

      We, the Steelers, love to sit back on draft day watching all the hoopla and see what falls to us. In this case, give us a guy to anchor our 3-4 for a decade or so. The Steelers select:

      Louis Nix III - NT - Notre Dame
      Houston Texans:

      I'm told the Houston Texans are not happy with not happy with Louis Nix and will target a nose tackle during the draft.

        I guess we chose the correct Irish d-lineman in the last draft...
