MOSteelers56 Posted March 15, 2019 Author Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) The depot just did a profile on Joe Jackson from Miami and I came away impressed. He's long and powerful. I'd love to grab him up in the 3rd or 4th. Edited March 15, 2019 by MOSteelers56 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livewire Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Do you guys think that Marquise Brown being Antonio's cousin would cause the Steelers to avoid him or be hesitant to draft him? Not that I'm interested in him being a Steeler but I'm just wondering out loud if that would have any affect on his scouting report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think other positions of need and the fact they spent a 2 Rd pick last year on WR will be more of a factor. But depending on the who's available, I could see him being the pick. I'm curious as to why you're not interested in him being a Steeler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown does have great speed and I've seen people compare him to Tyreek Hill. So getting that type of player in this offense would be nice. It depends, like you mentioned, on who is available at that point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I would avoid Marquise Brown based on his nickname. "Hollywood", yeah no thanks, give a guy like that money and nothing good will come of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warfelg Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I would stay away from Marquise "Hollywood" Brown because he's coming from a system that didn't run routes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youre not wrong but I also would want to stay away from constant comparisons to AB. Its a storyline we dont need in Pittsburgh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSteelers56 Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 I don't know about anyone else, but I'd give up our 1st, 2nd, and 3rd(or future 2nd) to get up and get Devin White. We aren't devoid of depth and we don't have a ton of needs but what we do need is an impact player in the middle of the defense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if it was the future 2nd. We need to load up to win now with Ben. Once that big lug retires, we'll have a ton of cap space to build around Rudolph or whomever we have at QB. We are deep at WR, maybe we can snag Houston to rush the passer, the lines don't need starters, we don't need starting CBs next year, we have our starting safeties(plus Barron at $B if we get White). We need a TE, but honestly we can probably get one in the 3rd or early 4th to be our #2 or 3(maybe Bucky Hodges takes a step, maybe Grimble will just juke instead of trying to truck people).

Don’t forget the probable 3rd rd compensatory pick next year for Bell...makes me think if they do trade up, next years 3rd is probably available. Plus besides ILB and #2 TE, they don’t seem to have a need at a current heavy snap position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFF Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Call me crazy, but I also think the Steelers don’t go WR til rd 3 at earliest...already legitimately 5 WR deep with Juju/Washington/Moncrief/Eli/Switzer. Next year could be different but even a RD1 probably doesn’t get decent amount of snaps this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year could be different but even a RD1 probably doesn’t get decent amount of snaps this year. I'd agree with this too. Moncrief is going to be the oldest of our top 3 at the ripe age of 26. I think we're just fine at WR. I'd only take a WR if Hakeem Butler was sitting there on the board with our second. Good outside guys, Moncrief and maybe Washington, good combo guy in JuJu, good slot weapons with Eli and Switz. Add in the threat at TE with Vance. Maybe draft Josh Oliver in the 3rd and we're good. I'm not overly worried about any positions on offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
