Steelers sign WR Donte Moncrief on 2 year deal

[Iron City Inc.]

I think we will absolutely draft a WR in the first three round. Let me rephrase "a WR or TE." I prefer an early pick on a potentially elite TE

Well if we didn't draft a wr early, and there are a bunch of very solid early rounders ,this draft does offer some nice value later. Mid round wr's who could be on the radar McLaurin OSU or Hardman ( both burners with special team skills) n perhaps later on day 3 a guy like Jennings who checks a bunch of boxes size speed good enough hands n change of direction that he could be nice value.
IMHO draft sets up well for us in that there is a bunch of early talent at LB and CB and DL and later some excellent value at rb ( see Mike Weber) and obviously wr.

I'll go with Cortez Allen.

I took my son to his first game in Pittsburgh in 2013. Ben went off for over 500 yards and 6 TDs. The main reason he needed to keep throwing the ball was because Allen kept blowing coverage. The thing with that guy is that he was rarely beat on the route, he was just unable to make a play on the ball in the air. Either he mistimed a jump or committed pass interference, but he was usually right there.

Yep . . . . He was always in good position but couldn't make a play on the ball.
kinda like me playing video games.....I know where I need to be but my fingers don't allow it

Good player who fills a need. Now no need to reach in the draft

Another good solid move by the organization while others spend like drunken sailors

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

However, let's not forget that this organization is in chaos, there is no leadership, Ben is a troublemaker, etc, etc. I'm sure Moncrief will want to be traded next week.

By the way...this dude looks like RB or Safety. Seems pretty jacked.

Hey, he just got here and he's already got that nifty Steelers shirt?

Pretty sure he didn't buy it at the airport

In the pressur, he's constantly talking about how attractive it was because of Ben. And that he had friends here already.

But Ben was obviously the main selling point. So those who keep bashing Ben need to think about the intangibles that Ben brings. Like his being able to attract others.

I seriously love this narrative now that this AB and LB cloud is cleared. Let everyone doubt. I love it when we are counted out just to come to play knowing we can beat anyone anytime anywhere. I hope 2019 is the year we have been all waiting for since the 2008 campaign.

amen brother. seems like a breath of fresh air.. and a newly found excitment the last few days!

[KYPITTFAN]

Dang, should have waited. Jordy Nelson is now available.

[KYPITTFAN]

If I'm picking, I go best RB available. We need quality depth. 2nd pick is linebacker. Next two picks is best down lineman that can get to the QB. Then I get best field goal kicker available. After that is best player on the board.
