    You just started it. LOL.

    I am wondering if Suisham and a 3rd would be enough to get us another pick in the second. There are some rocky teams with weak kickers these days. Does anyone think Suisham is trade bait at some point, now during the draft, or in preseason, or season. Something has to give. I sure would like an extra second rounderer in this draft.

      According to the standard draft trade chart, our pick at 2.58 is worth 320 points and our pick at 3.89 is worth 145 points. Typically, trades for veteran kickers show that they tend to be worth a 6th rounder (points in the teens or 20's according to the chart) or a 7th rounder (single digit points), so Suisham wouldn't be close to enough to turn a 3rd into a 2nd. It would take something like this year's 3rd and next year's 3rd to get back into the 2nd again.

      I would love to participate in a live draft chat...however, game 1 of the Pens-Caps series will take place at the same time as the draft, and I want to be able to record the hockey game and watch the first period or two immediately after the draft tonight and then watch the rest of it tomorrow. If I join a draft chat, I know that someone will spoil the score of the hockey game for sure, so, unfortunately, I'm out.
      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'm in northeastern PA...about a 5.5 hour drive from Pittsburgh (2 hours north of Philly and 2 hours west of NYC).

              Where are you? Eastern Europe or East Africa?

                      Giants take Eli Apple. Lots of mocks had him going to the Steelers, but he's off the board well before they pick.

                        Gruden said what I said earlier today...he will be a penalty machine early in his career. I'm still pulling for Def Line

                            I think you will get you wish. All the real talented DBs are off the board now.
                            Trolls are people too.

                              If Lynch doesn't go to jets...

                              Do you?

                              Or maybe someone wants to come up?
