    Saw Mayock's mock on NFLN last night. He had the Steelers picking.....Sony Michel, RB, Georgia.

    On his board he had all 4 top ILBs gone, but he did have the Steelers passing on Guice. Reason for that was some type of character issue, but I hadn't seen anything about that before.

    Interesting to note that Mayock is not the typical national guy with little insight into individual teams, and he has a connection to the Steelers as a former player, so he probably stays in tune with this team.

    First time I've seen Michel mocked to the Steelers, and I think the first time I've seen him in the first round.

      Not all 4 ILB's were gone before #28 in the Mayock mock. Leighton Vander Esch was not chosen by Mayock in his first round.

      And as far as I know, the only investigation surrounding Guice is the league investigating whether or not teams were asking him inappropriate questions during Combine interviews.
      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 like the Trib’s column from this morning. The said they need to go “Polamalu” on this draft and trade up to get Roquan Smith. They admit the high price tag believe it’s more than worth it.

          If we try to move up, I want Martavius Bryant used as a chip to do so. He would be super attractive to Dallas right now.

            True about LVE - had forgotten that. He talked afterwards about the neck concerns and says that some teams have dropped him, others haven't. Would be interesting to see him fall into the mid second (if the Steelers don't draft an ILB in the first) to see if they move up.

            As for Guice, he had him going to the Eagles at 32. He mentioned on the show that there were character concerns but didn't elaborate.

              Just saw on my favorite website that Colbert is quietly still listening to offers for Bryant.
