    1st round grades

    I keep reading and hearing,that is draft might not have that many 1st round graded players ( 13-20 players with 1st round grades). So whoever we draft might not truely be a 1st round talent.

    Some say it is a deep draft, does this mean that the 2nd round graded player run deep all the way to the 3rd or 4th round?

    Is this why I keep on wishing we can gain more picks in the 2nd or 3rd?

    Who comes up with this rating?

    Very True - I said on another Post that the bottom 1/3 of the 1st Round isn't very impressive unless someone falls out of the Top 20 - that would most likely be an EDGE/DT

    Why i'd consider trading DOWN and looking at an Irv Smith (TE), BAKER (CB), WILSON (ILB)

      If Colbert sees it that way and does just that then it’s fine with me.

        Every mock is different from the talking heads...One player here l haven't heard talked about...Clelin Ferrell...Not many, But a few mocks have him available to us when picking, But none picking him...How good is he? Could we use him now in our scheme as currently constructed? IF we did domething like this, Tuitt replacement instead of big money for ehhhh production...

          Ferrell's body type doesn't seem to be suited for a 3-4 DE like Stephon Tuitt or a 3-4 OLB like Bud Dupree either.

          Ferrell seems like the prototypical 4-3 DE to me.
          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.

            Okay Ovi, Ruthless teed the ball up for you.
            As many on this site think ... The Rooney's suck, Colbert sucks, Tomlin sucks, the coaches suck, and the players suck.

            but Go Steelers!!!

              It's all subjective. I just googled "2019 NFL draft first round draft grades and the first thing that popped up is Charles Davis who has 31 players with a first round grade.

              http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001025582/article/2019-nfl-draft-ranking-players-who-deserve-firstround-grade

              I'm no college expert so I just watch and wait. There are so many factors involved, many of which we get no insight into. There are only 32 rankings that matter and we will never see them.
