I did 4 rounds as well. Got DT Jarran Reed first, then TE Hunter Henry fell to me in the second, so I was excited. I was hoping to address the secondary in round 3, but didn't like what was there. Even though a project wideout is the furthest thing we need, I took Braxton Miller in the third, because his name seemed to stick out as BPA there (he could potentially do what another 3rd round pick Dri Archer was supposed to do in terms of helping in the return game and being a utility type of weapon on offense...maybe he becomes a latter day Randle El). Then I took CB Harlan Miller in round 4.
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.

Reed was gone at 12 in the one that I did, and the guys that made the most sense were either Spence or Apple. I went with the potential stud pass rusher over the corner.
I just did another 4 rounder with a different big board and ended up the following crazy perfect haul:
1. CB Vernon Hargreaves III, Florida
2. TE Hunter Henry, Arkansas
3. DT Austin Johnson, Penn State
4. FS DeAndre Houston-Carson, William & Mary
Yes, please!!!

Has a best player available feel to it in round 1 with Lee.
When they give Mclendon a new contract and put him on the edge with Heyward and Tuitt, Johnson splits time and helps solidify the interior.
The wheels come right off with the additions of Kearse in the 3rd and Wilson in the 4th. One is a third round gamble that would fill a big void for the defense while the other strengthens an already mighty position, but certainly not a serious need. Good fun, though.
I really wanted to take Jarren Reed in the first, but the vikings took him 2 picks before us. So I had to settle for someone else.....
