One opinion of the odds on who the Steelers take.

Re: One opinion of the odds on who the Steelers take.

His talent is not in doubt. The most troubling thing I hear (and Mayock kinda confirmed the other night on NFL Network) is that he hangs with a "posse" of old buddies some of who are not quality indviduals. Sound familiar?????

Again, i see your point O. But perhaps the most decisive factor in terms of his (Harvin) relationship with old friends is the whether or not he's an 'Alpha' as opposed to being naive and too willing to please his "crew". Meaning,..an Alpha does not allow his friends or Loved ones poor decisions or lack of character on their part to be detrimental to his career and or well being.

Ie: You love your friends unconditionally, but if they are up to some 'dumb sh#t' you decide whether or not your 'in'. And if that is going to be detrimental to your life, ya gotta 'cut your losses' and move on. Because at the end of the Day,..an actual friend would understand that you cannot compromise all that you are and have for the sake of their desires. (as opposed to an actual need)

And Harvin doesn't strike me as the type of individual whom is naive and or a 'sucker'.

Re: One opinion of the odds on who the Steelers take.

Like I said, I hope some other team takes him long before 1.32.

I cringe every time I hear reports to guys like Harvin possibly sliding, because I am counting on guys like that to be taken in the top 31, allowing another guy that we really want to possibly fall into our laps at #32.

If Alex Mack doesn't drop to us I hope we select a DT in the first round. Mack is the only Center I would use a 1st rounder on. CB is an option but I think we can get quality later in the draft for much cheaper.

Re: One opinion of the odds on who the Steelers take.

I was watching a draft special on ESPN last night and they said don't be surprised if Robiskie is taken in the first round. Apparently, he's moving up and Percy Harvin is moving down

.


And i hope that Percy continues to drop,...all the way to #32. And then go on with Santonio, Hines, and Ben to punish the rest of the league for it,......

Yeah, I always look at players that are dropping. Heath, Santonio are two that recently fell due to some questions or injuries.

Vontae Davis would be a nice addition but how could you pass Percy Harvin up? He's basically Reggie Bush.

I'm hoping Raji did test positive and drops to 32.

I don't think of Harvin in the same sense as Reggie,..sure there is similarity in terms explosiveness and athleticism, but i consider Harvin a receiver first whom happened to be talented enough to be used at times as a back.

Reggie has always and still considers himself a tailback. (Though it could be argued that this is much to his detriment at league level.)

They are both a big play waiting to happen. We don't currently have a playmaker like them on our roster.

i would actually rather have brace than raji. i dont think raji would be a great 3-4 NT. harvin is reggie bush, he is definetly not your typical wr. im not sure how he would fit with the steelers offense though. i would rather have nicks than harvin but i think nicks will be drafted before 1.32

Re: One opinion of the odds on who the Steelers take.

I had been leaning towards Mack for a while. Recently, I've been leaning towards Wood a bit more, but I would be happy with either. I really hope they don't take Unger. Hopefully somebody grabs him for his versatility before he makes it to the Steelers.

Re: One opinion of the odds on who the Steelers take.

I want no part of Davis, he will be a bust like his brother. He will run his mouth like his brother. He is not a Steeler.

But if Harvin falls to us, all i can say is WOW. With that speed and those moves.....


I would be happy with Mack, or Unger at the end of round one, if only for their versatilty.

It is his versatility that has me thinking the fit might be perfect.

Welcome 43! It has been a while, good to see you posting here!

Re: One opinion of the odds on who the Steelers take.

What's wrong with Unger?

The guy has only started for 4 straight years with 2 of them at OT for sakes! Kind of sounds like another Sam Baker but will be destined to play G or C instead of T.

Personally, at the end of round 1, if they took him I'd be very happy with him competing for a starting position.......
