Rumors are the Steelers are talking to the Giants about #7.  Why #7 and not #6?  I think everyone in the League knows our QB interest in the draft at #6 is 100% smoke.  Rhule+rookie QB=canned...everyone knows this.  However, the Falcons' interest in Willis at #8 seems legit, so that's why they are poking around at #7 pick.

It would be my wet dream for Pickett to go to NO and Willis to Atlanta.   Let those franchises deal with that garbage

I know some people believe this is a terrible class but with our luck one of them would go on to be a thorn in our side for years. That's just how things go for this snakebit franchise.

The only thing that gives me pause that we might take a qb is mcadoo and fitterers comments. Mcadoo has been so right on the money the past five seasons with qbs. He had Mahomes, Allen and Lamar #1 and #2 in their respective classes. Those are the rawest 3 prospects in their classes who turned into mvp’s or in mvp discussions with Allen. My hope is that they override rhules dumbass and take Malik at 6 and the majority of this board melts the fug down while I laugh and clap.

There are people here who want an OT at #6 because this is an OT draft.....and we haven't had a decent OL in a long time.   Which is the key cog along w/ QB to have offense in the NFL. 

I want an OT because I think that the talent level is higher there than at QB and LT is one of our key positions of need. That's not to say that QB isn't or couldn't be the pick, I am just saying that for me, I haven't seen the QB tape that makes me look at one of them and say "that's our future." 

If we had the 2nd and 3rd round picks to pursue some of our other needs, I'd be more open to QB at 6, buy we don't have those picks. I will say it really bothers me that we brought in Campen to evaluate our line talent but Rhule has the ultimate say in who starts. Why hire these guys if you aren't going to listen to them.

I'm higher on OT because it's the perfect fit  Valued position, team need, draft strength and player ranking..

We need LT, the position is valued at our draft pick, the players are ranked in that area of the draft ...

It's really that simple..

Without adding in lame duck coaching staff..

It’s not. I agree wholeheartedly with what TRG said. They’ve spent enormous resources on building the 1980’s football team that so many here want in accordance with Matt rhules archaic philosophy on football since he got here, and the fanbase will be the ones reaping the whirlwind, some of them gladly.

 

id love to be wrong but it seems pretty obvious they’re just gonna stay put and take the third best offensive tackle in the class, before drafting #10 next season when we’re all having the exact same discussion (well not me, pretty sure I’m done)

at this point it’s probably just best to hope the QBs don’t go to the teams you hate. 

Doubt it, Tepper will overrule Rhule this years and take a QB. Unless they have a Baker trade in the works is gonna be QB.

      The Cavalry is Coming

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction

      Better than a fragile starter, though
