    no, the 3rd round pick we have is a comp pick that will be at the end of Round 3. packaged with either our or Tennessee's 4th rounder all we could do is move up to the middle or upper third of Round 3.

      Interesting to see how it plays out down the road

        Per gary dulac...SOURCES: Steelers did not make trade for Vannett because they think Vance McDonald shoulder injury is bad. It’s not. They are trying to bolster position and get a No. 2 after what they’ve witnessed thru 3games

          looks like a long season
          We’ll find out more tomorrow during the presser but McDonald has a sling around his shoulder. I’m assuming he’ll be out for awhile.

            What took them so long to see what a lot of us saw along time ago?
            How is it possible to have the best owner, best front office, best gm, best HC, good/great drafts every year and good FA acquisitions every year, but only have 3 playoff wins in 14 years?

                  grimble wasn't given any meaningful competition this summer and he's the same bum he has always been. another inept roster move to keep him around

                  now we trade a 5th for a guy in the last year of his deal. don't get this move. looks like a little disarray in the FO

                    Yup. McDonald will probably be a cap cut next year. Our remaining tes are not #1. Cap will be sparse and getting a real te with the few picks we do have more than likely won't happen.

                      Vannett onboard ... pencil us in for the Super Bowl.

                      So who can we trade our other 2020 draft picks for?

                        Def something they should have addressed in August
                        Well THAT's certainly NOT good news

                            I'm alright with this trade...hopefully he is good enough to be re-signed.

                              I'm down with this trade. I think he has some potential.

                              A former 3rd round pick for a 5th rounder seems like a good trade off. Still a little unknown, but this kid has upside and I'm not sure how much of a chance he's gotten yet? I haven't really followed him in Seattle, so all I know of him was from looking at him during the draft process 3 yrs ago.

                                Yinz bitch when the Steelers don't make a move. Bitch when they do. Fortunately the Steelers don't run the team like you do in Madden.
                                Steelers needed to give Grumble a chance to fail.
                                Neither Grumble nor Gentry are known for blocking skills and this move signals the Steelers are serious about getting the running game fixed.
