      And so ends the chapter of one of the bigger draft misses for the Steelers. I saw that he was waived with a failed physical designation.

      This one really hurts when you look at the guys left on the board. He was picked at 58, 2 spots in front of Kelechi Osemele. Picks 62-67 included:

      Casey Heyward
      Rueben Randle
      Dwayne Allen
      Trumaine Johnson
      Josh Robinson
      Ronnie Hillman

          Hasta la bye bye.

          I'm perfectly fine with an OT depth chart of Marcus Gilbert, Alejandro Villenueva, Ryan Harris, and Jerald Hawkins.
          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.

                      Unfortunately for Adams, he might have been a bigger asset when he was in the tub...

                      And I agree with Ovi - props to Shawn

                              As I wish I was wrong about Jarvis Jones. Being right about those guys isn't good for the team we love

                                          Last summer Mike Adams bought a house around the corner from me. I could tell then that he wasn't returning to the NFL because...

                                          he bought a house around the corner from me.

                                                          He was also inconsistent, which was one of Shawn's knocks on him. I remember he was decent in the one stretch where he filled in for Gilbert, but otherwise he never played as well as somebody with his physical gifts should.
