Speculation from Twitter

Absolutely take that deal. According to the Consensus big board we could be looking at:

21: Mike Green Edge, Mathew Golden WR, Malaki Starks or Nick Emmanwori S

57: Jack Sawyer Edge, Princely Edge, Carson Swesinger LB, Alfred Collins DT, Elic Ayomanor WR.

74: Isaih Bond WR, Cam Skatteboo RB, Demtrius Knight LB

83: Shemar Turner Edge, Andrew Mukuba S, Jalen Royals WR, Cam Williams OT

111: Chris Paul LB, Tez Johnson WR, DJ Giddens RB, Billy Bowman S

and then we still pick 140, 146, 156,163....

It would fill all needs and then some.

Warren at TE covers 2 of these positions... I'm starting to like the idea of drafting this guy. If we are looking receiver help at #8, make it Warren and not a WR. I still think trading back is our best option, we have to many needs to not try an acquire extra picks. Maybe the Steelers would trade up for S. Sanders if he is still on the board?

 

I tried to speak this into existence.... Maybe it will happen?

Has he had a top 30 visit yet?  Nope.  Have other tes?   Yep.

Sanders isn't worth it. He looked like a polished but limited QB. They should have learned after Pickett but finding out they are desperate enough to do something that dumb wouldn't be surprising given their situation.

Take that trade. Take a trade with a discounted value too. 21 is fine. Getting 2nds in 26 and 27 vs a 1st in 26 is fine. This is a 5 win team that needs a lot of chances are young talent. The people in the 20s won't be thst much different than at 8 in this draft. I would rather have their 2nd than the rest of the picks this year. Getting a 2nd this year would be ideal given the talent in that range.

It's difficult for me to buy an organization as historically well ran as the Steelers doing something this colossally stupid unless somehow David Tepper has shadow purchased the organization. 

"Historically Well Ran" retired about three years ago

I also think the term “local source” is a stretch here lol. It’s X speculation from fans; they aren’t media, press or anything. 

Well to be clear, "source" isn't necessarily the same as "insider" (mentioned in the post).

The idea isn't something I take too seriously but it does make for a bit of discussion.

    • I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible. 
    • Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.   
    • Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
