      I would agree with everyone on that list except Duke Robinson. I don't want him.

        Any particular reason why not Duke Robinson?

        I still think he is one of the best Guard going into the combine.

          Can be a bit inconsistent...Not a great technician...Isn't real light on his feet...Has lapses in concentration...Poor balance...Will get caught reaching at times...Will have some trouble with quicker defensive tackles...Work ethic has been questioned and tends to skate by on his natural ability...Little immature...Won't be an ideal fit for every team

            And not only ALL that, but he's an a-hole too. (j/k)

            That was quite a laundry list...you've scared me away officially.

              You forgot to mention that he looks like Shaq with long hair. It kind of freaks me out.

              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.

                  Re: Players to target.

                  Hmmm..i think i have read this on some site ...can't recollect the website. Every player has negatives.

                  If Steelers want power run football then i think Duke is one player they may want to take a look unless he has some character issues.

                  Duke should help improve 3rd and short Offense immediately.

                  I will be watching the combines for these 3 players:

                  Alex Mack, Max Unger and Duke..

                    I've heard that duke dude has work ethic issues. Talent will keep you a star at the collegiate level but that stuff won't cut it in the bigs. And we already have an overpaid O-lineman apparently with talent/potential but seemingly unmotivated...

                      I have read at multiple sites that he has work ethic issues. Plays on pure talent and is lazy. That is all I need to hear. Pass.
