      Agree, but only if they are good with not getting Porter.
      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?

        I'm hoping for a trade down to see if we can recoup our lost 4th. 5th and 6th round picks.

            really depends on how highly the Steelers have him rated.

            they may or may not like another player much better.

              If thry do indeed like Porter ( I’m guessing most think thry do)
              thrn grabbing potential starters/ pro bowlers at LT and corner with first 2 picks is a friggin huge win.
              2 premium positions.

                I agree....if they go CB right here, I just pray Tomlin gets it right.

                  there are a lot of good players still on the board.

                  we can drop a few spots and still get one while picking up some additional draft capital.

                    I think Tyrique Stevenson is the one that could cause a trade. Sounded like they really liked him and frankly, I think they expected to get him at 2.32 (with the expectation that JPJ would be gone).

                      For those that understand the intricacies of the position better than myself - is there a huge difference in the remaining CB's? Thinking of the likes of:

                      Joey Porter Jr. - PSU
                      Cam Smith - South Carolina
                      Kelee Ringo - Georgia
                      Julius Brents - Kansas St
                      DJ Turner - Michigan
                      Jakorian Bennett - Maryland

                      If we trade out of 32, and without knowing what we'll get in return, if we wait until 49, do you think any of these guys will be left, and if so, how dramatic is the drop off?
                      Thanks,
                      Mick

                        Ringo stood 'em up. I think he's off the board...

                          I love how we got our guy, a big body DL in round three. A great 3 rounds.
