    Loudermilk

    Head scratcher. This guy wasn't even suppose to get drafted. Ravens take Shaun Wade right after. Huh

    Wade had some bad tape. Real bad. I don't have an issue with Loudermilk but you can't be trading next years picks away. And I don't want to hear we'll have an extra pick for Bud loss. We'll need all the picks we can get if we have to move up n get a franchise Qb.
    Many moves we are making and our overall thinking around how to accumulate talent I'm questioning.

      I’m fine passing on Wade and I’m a Buckeye grad. He’s a good slot CB but terrible when moved outside. He was beaten badly every game in 2020.

        Wade would do better with a switch to safety because he clearly lacked top end speed.

          this staff always seems to have someone they are fixated with and overspend to get him.

          its a day 3 pick they gave up so i'm not going to get upset by it but why wouldn't they think this guy lasts to the 6th round?

            Wade is just one player that would fill a need (we need a slot corner). Kary Vincent, double up at OT with Forsythe, lots of Safeties. IDK. This guy is an extreme reach. Better hope he is the next Brett Kiesel

              Not one DB drafted yet. We do need help at corner...
              Tomlin hasn't won a playoff game in seven years and counting. The earliest will be eight years. I guess that in Art Rooney's II, opinion is worth a 3 year extension.

              Our 2024 draft looks to be grade A. Our 2023 draft is an A. The roster is talented, but Mike Tomlin is still the head coach.

              *** Mike Tomlin is the best coach since the AFL- NFL merger that has not won a playoff game in 8 seasons or more. It's either him or Lewis. ***

                there are still some good FA CBs available, apparently that's the route we're going to take.

                tbh, I'm happy about that.

                    DL coach Karl Dunbar's quote about trading up for Loudermilk:

                    "A good DL is like a pretty woman. everybody wants one but there aren't a lot of them."

                      Looks like they loaded up on post draft FA DBs

                        If we have a winning record and make the play offs which every fan should want like to organization does every year, a 4th round pick isn't going to help you move up to get a "supposedly great" QB

                          Kevin Colbert says Steelers had a fourth-round grade on Wisconsin DL Isaiahh Loudermilk, but went with Dan Moore Jr. and Buddy Johnson instead. Hence, trading a fourth-rounder next year to move back into the fifth round Saturday.

                            Poor journalism.
                            The guy is our savior at olb, not dl.
                            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?
