He's the guy that you'd need to take a #20 if you really wanted him, not Hakeem Butler (but I don't want any WR in the first, personally...would rather take advantage of the depth at this position in the middle rounds). The Ravens pick a couple of slots behind us in the first. I hope they blow a WR pick again and take Metcalf here, who I believe has serious limitations and will never be a WR1 in this league. If they picked Harry instead, though, I think he could develop into a legit WR1 and it might actually work out for them at this position for once.

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. -

NKeal Harry is a 60-70 catch a year possession receiver. Has struggled with weight problems and offers a low ceiling. I wouldn't touch him before the 3rd. I'd much rather have JJAW.

Disagree here. I like Arcega-Whiteside as a red zone threat, but I think Harry is a much more complete receiver overall.
In terms of WR evaluation, I'll have to defer to the master Kevin Colbert, though. And knowing what I know about Colbert, I think a WR he might fall for in this draft could be Deebo Samuel. I'd personally rather get a different type of WR (a tall, fast, big play threat as opposed to a shorter, powerful gamer-type who shares many qualities with guys we already have like Juju and Washington).Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

I too will put my trust in KC. I think JJAW and Harry are very similar except JJAW is almost unstoppable in the redzone. Because we have had struggles in that area JJAW gets a huge bump over Harry for me.Disagree here.

NFL draft predictions for all 32 teams: Who's trading up, who's taking a QB and more
Apr 24, 2019
ESPN.com
Some teams are angling to move up. Even more are angling to move down.
The 2019 NFL draft is almost here, and NFL Nation reporters are making one prediction for every team.
Pittsburgh Steelers
Steelers will try to strike second-round WR gold again
The Steelers will draft a receiver in the second round for the third consecutive year. The franchise has had too much success finding receiver talent outside of the first round not to take a swing on Day 2. Pittsburgh has the do-it-all playmaker in JuJu Smith-Schuster, a still-developing deep threat in James Washington and needs an infusion of open-field quickness and speed with Antonio Brown gone. South Carolina's Deebo Samuel could be the ideal fit.
