      I've like Jourdan Lewis in Round 2. Any reason why he is not on your list?
      I wasn't hired for my disposition.

        I would trade up for King or Awuzie. It would be out of character but either could be starting for us by mid season. Solid upgrade and with Gay possible move to S the need is large. It would take 2nd n 2nd in 18 to just jump to top of 2nd however for King who I really like I believe it's worth the price.

          I would not trade up, I might trade down if a safety isn't there.

            Lewis is intriguing. What about Rivers?

            We need another CB or a S that can play man/press and I don't care what round they do it in. I wouldn't be against them double dipping at OLB or adding a ILB. The Steelers big excuse for getting embarrassed by Tom Brady again was their inability to man up/press and the lack of pass rush. Rooney specifically mentioned the pass rush. They didn't do a damn thing about the secondary in free agency to address the lack of ability to play man/press so they better do it in the draft. If not, we might as well accept defeat to the Patriots again next year. If you play our zone, you lose to Brady. It's that simple. If you don't have the players to play man, then they better get one. Artie Burns can do it. They need 1 more. Maybe Obi can play that hybrid role in sub-packages.

            I wouldn't mind them not drafting an offensive player until round 4. With that said, there were rumors they liked Kaaya and I guess I could live with that in the 3rd if they think he can potentially start. That's to early if he's considered nothing more than backup material.

              I will assume if Mcmillan is there, you would take him right ? He probably won't be, but if he was ?

                Observation: They brought in two ILBs that many graded as 1st rounders for visits (Jarrad Davis, Zach Cunningham)...
                That means 1) they liked those guys and 2) they thought ILB was kind of a big need.
                If Cunningham slides more than 10-12 spots into the second round, don't be surprised to see them trade up and get him. I'm not expecting it, but, wouldn't be shocked.

                  According to the trade value chart:

                  Giving up our original 3rd round pick should be able to move us up into the middle portion of round 2.

                  Giving up our 3rd round comp pick (comp picks can be traded for the first time this year), we should be able to move up about 9-10 spots.

                  Giving up our 4th round pick, we should be able to move up about 4-5 spots.

                  Giving up our 5th round pick, we should be able to move up about 2-3 spots.
                  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.

                      My prediction - trade 3rd rounder to redskins and go get Cunningham.

                        After watching the Bears giving up a bunch of picks I would bet they would be listening closely to anyone willing to give some picks up to move up including 2018 picks. They do not want to look like the "donkey" which after yesterday well you know,

                          Can't trade our 4th Round pick because that is the James Conner pick

                              as a WVU fan, I can tell you Douglas will be on the field this year... if we pick him up. He's a beast.
