They weren't going to be that competitive this year no matter who they drafted. It's acknowledging the reality of the situation and doing what can be done now to help going forward. Anything left unaddressed this season will be next offseason. This team was the worst team in the league for a reason. It's going to take a while to fix it. It is what it is.

Prepare for more bitching and complaining.

They 1st 3 picks will contribute this season. When they get to "start" is up to how they perform on the field.

Him using TMJ in his argument says all you need to know.

Every team says they drafted BPA. I suppose it was BPA on their draft board. I would love to have a snapshot of it to review in a couple of years. Then we can evaluate their scouting and evaluation prowess.

I'm not complaining about who they chose to draft and at what position....yet. What does confuse me is what positions they decided to focus on. I was never a fan of locking in on specific players in the draft. That's what FA and the waiver wire are for. The draft should be, to me at least, letting the best available come to you. Selecting the best regardless of position, within reason that is. But when teams fall in love with a specific player they panic and start moving around in the draft to make sure they get "their guy". Which usually doesn't work out. I always get nervous when I hear "our guy" because it means they already have blinders on beforeit even starts.

Corbett got beat like a drum regularly as a guard before he got injured. So much so they went out a got the best FA guard available to replace him. So now, instead of putting him on the bench or on the street they are converting him to starting center. An underperforming guard coming off 2 season ending knee injuries will now be the starting center. How the hell does that sound like a wise decision?

Oh I agree, they missed out on starting centers in the draft. Let's hope plan A miraculously works.

They will. They have to have a camp arm.

I would feel a lot more comfortable if they had a better plan B in place at the position myself. I'm just as confident in Colberts ability and availability for an entire season at the position as the team.

It appears to me that Wallace may not be quite as good as Wilson but he had well known coaches that know LB talent when they see it. Wilson may go on to have a HOF career and everyone but the Steelers will regret it. But that can happen with any pick. Wallace is no slouch and could do the same himself. I think we will survive either way.

If they take a center it would help one would think.

It sounds like the Steelers among others had a lot of interest in him.

Not sure. He's a great LB but I think most teams felt the risk drafting him high was more than they were willing to pay. For the Steelers it was nothing unknown to them as they've had players with the same problem before. It worked out for them so they took a chance. I can't fault a team either way. It's all a gamble anyway.

Brooks is what they thought they were getting in Sanders. Sanders will be gone as soon as it's financially feasible.

He's s Steeler now.

They say he hasn't missed a game either. I guess taking him early is just too much of a gamble for most teams. I'm sure some team will take a chance on him at some point. Maybe the Panthers on day 3.

Just heard the Wilson only has 1 ACL. Teams are too concerned.

Are you guys actually questioning Dan Morgan's knowledge on LB's? I think I will take his word over any of you goobers.

Damn! There goes Frazier.

This^ I think the Cowboys wanted him bad.

I've got no issues with this move. It took care of a need and he can start right away in a rotation. I hope we get Frasier at least.

I think would rather have Frasier anyway.

But they do!

What did we get?
