    I honestly don't know so this isn't a criticism of any proposed pick, but does Cunningham check the speed block which seems like a prerequisite on our defense now??????? Our recent defense picks have had speed as a major attribute.

      He doesn't have the crazy straight line 40 speed that Shazier does, but he was impressive in him jumps at the combine, both broad and vert, which shows the necessary explosion in his legs that teams look for, and the tape review shows his excellent instinctiveness and awareness out on the field. His football mind gets him where he needs to be faster than players with better raw 40 times. This guy is a football player who just makes plays.
      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.

        Good, ...I hope they get enamoured with everybody and just let Cunningham fall right to our waiting arms. LOL.
