    For what it's worth, here are the projections from NFLDraftScout for the 4 picks we have taken so far:

    Bud Dupree 1
    Senquez Golson 3-4
    Sammie Coates 2-3
    Doran Grant 3
    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 got good value .... projections are one thing but where you take a guy is another.

      DUPREE fills a HUGE need filling in for WORILDS and getting him at #22 is a no brainer.
      GOLSON fills a huge need b/c he has the knack for INTs. Everyone whines about us "reaching" for him but he can make things happen and can tackle.
      Not sold on COATES but if you flipped his pick with GRANT I don't think anyone would complain. He has great potential but his HANDS scare me.

        Four picks left to address needs at TE, RB, FS and OG. Hope the Steelers hit on all of them.

          Agreed with TE being Priority A - I could swap out the RB for a big body DT to challenge Big John

            so, through 4, we have a 1st rounder, a late 2/early 3, a 3rd and a late 3/early 4. Sounds like good value to me..

              Yeah, I'd really like to see a big guy added to the defense line. The rest of the division has worked on building their lines. I'd like to see the Steelers add some bulk as well.

                Not sure TE is a big need yet. Next draft for that and maybe RB. FS might have to wait also. Grant is said to maybe be able to play there? OG maybe, a swing DE/DT with some possible rush for me to help with 4-3 sets.

                    U know, looking at the FS prospects left on the board, if I was gonna take one, I'd take Holliman... Who I was against taking... But, in the 6th... I'd do it...

                            he'll be used in sub-packages in Cover 2 or Cover 3 where he is a centerfielder...
