Its kinda too early to name a player for sure, because alot will chance in the next 4 months. I just want the best player at OL or CB in round 1. Only way Id go with another position is if the value is too good to pass up. Only positions Id completely disregard in round 1 are RB, TE and OLB. Every other position Id at least consider. Although I dont believe there will be any QBs, ILBs or S's Id take in round 1 this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the DraftTek mock became reality up until the Steelers selection, who would you want us to take? Kenyon Green? Nicholas Petit-Frere?

OTs are so much harder to hide because of gap responsibility, leg kick, base movement, arm movement. Sometimes the help for a bad OT just makes it easier for a EDGE to beat the OT.

OTs are so much harder to hide because of gap responsibility, leg kick, base movement, arm movement. Sometimes the help for a bad OT just makes it easier for a EDGE to beat the OT. My take is that a OT can be hidden against elite EDGE guys by chipping and putting TEs in there. If we want to be able to be physical on offense we need a new OG. Adding an elite tackle rarely brings up the play of the entire line. Adding a OG can do that. Maybe I'm completely wrong, but I think OGs are way more important than OTs now. Nobody is doing 7 step drops anymore. Pressure up the middle is how you beat elite offenses. If we want one of those we need to get a whole lot better in the middle of our line.

warfelg Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 I think we’re gonna start seeing players from great defensive teams going much lower than projected. Teams are going to start to look at production as a product of the team. Davis kinda reminds me of the old Jags DT combo that were both big. Can’t remember their names.

mwalker Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 If K.Green is there at 20, he's hard to pass on. He's such a good fit for what we need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicholas Petit-Frere? Probably Green, but we will see what happens in the next few months. My concern is, as usual, whenever we have a major need at offensive tackle, there is usually a run on them in the first round to the point where teams are even reaching. I wouldnt be shocked if Green goes at least a few picks before us and there arent any OTs worth drafting when we pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jebrick Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Steelers are in a bad place to need a OT but a good place to get the best OG. This is a deep class at OT. Again the question, Do you want a Rt or a LT. If LT you are looking at: Ekwonu Cross Petit-Frere - could play RT Raimann - Developmental RT add Neal, Penning in the 1st I would be happy with Rainmann as a LT or Penning as a RT. I would also be fine with Green at OG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
