    QB Double-Dip

    Because, you know, you wouldn't be able to get Oladukin as an UDFA

    Steelers did not draft this year like a team that had a lot of holes to fill

    So, now that the draft is almost over, and yea, they will fill spots next with some free agent rookies, where are there still holes to fill?

      Cobert said way, way back that they would have 4 QB's going into camp this year...

      I guess he is a man of his word

        NT, S, OL, ILB, RB, CB

        if not as a current or someday starter, we could use better depth at all those positions

          Sing Haden. Cut Rudolph (trade is a impossible dream) and use the money saved in a remaining FA NT, OT, OLB o S. Or pray for we find a gem UDFA on this positions.

            I like Oladukin but why pick him just to be another camp arm. They could have got him as an UDFA. Management flunked this draft. Worst one I've seen.

              Since Mark Robinson mostly played RB in college you could argue that the Steelers draft strategy did the QB, RB, and WR double dip with a DL thrown in as the odd man out.
              Obviously the standard is the standard.

                Honestly think he’s Mason’s comp. One spot between the two

                  Last time (that i recall) them taking late round flier on a guy who played mostly RB but converted the final year, it was Ike Taylor…

                  he was also perceived to be a dumb guy… FWIW

                    As Tomlin just said in his PC. They added depth in Free Agency.

                    They will add more bodies once the draft is over, but very rarely does a 6 or 7th round pick make the team.

                      Honestly this has been a very bad draft for the team. I like Pickett's attitude but serious doubts about him becoming a franchise type QB, I hope he proves the doubters wrong. Pickens is a great pick. After that yikes, especially the last two picks both of which would likely go undrafted. No OL players taken is beyond bizarre.

                        Personally like the first 2 days…. Will reserve judgment on day 3 picks… after all, they’re day 3 picks.

                        did love CA3 at WR in the 4th

                          Thank God Colbert is gone. Outside of tge Browns him and Tomlin are the worst drafters in the league. After the 2nd rd this was downright embrassing

                            I am not surprised. They have a young line. All positions are filled, and like they said in the PC. They now have 3 players including Green who are versatile enough to play 2 positions ..C/G
