New Mock!!!

20. Charles Cross OT Mississippi State

52. Jaquan Brisker S Penn State

84. Quay Walker ILB Georgia

138.Cade Mays OG Tennessee

208. Danny Gray WR SMU

225. Josh Blackwell CB Duke

241. Zach VanValkenburg EDGE Iowa

I would be amazed if the Steelers select an Olinemen, especially a OT, in the 1st.  They are paying Chuks to start and like Moore.  I do not trust Chuks but I think an OT like Cross or Penning falls down their list.  WR, safety, DT and CB move up

DJ and Claypool starting WRs. 
Bush still at ILB. 
Witherspoon and Wallace at CB. 
 

That all feels really weak. 

Just because he said there are starters doesn’t mean they can’t be improved upon. We still have a draft and potential trade market.

They’re gonna sign a vet FA at SS…asking as they don’t sign a WR before the draft, I’m going to expect a WR in the 1st or 2nd round.

To be honest, I’d be fine double dipping a 1/2 and a 4th.

I was thinking the same. I’m hoping for Jameson Williams and someone like Alec Pierce or Justyn Ross. The WR class is kind of deep and unpredictable, I think it could happen.

Heck, I wouldn’t mind them going Wilson, Olave, or Williams in the first and circling around for Skye Moore in the second if they’re the BPA on their board. No concern about DJ needing big money next year and puts the message to Claypool he needs to mature and play. Then focus on D for the rest of the draft.

After that, Im not sure there is an OT Id absolutely take in the first.   There are good prospects, but not on Cross' level. and I think the Steelers are going to be largely content with Moore and Chuks this year.

What about Trevor Penning?

 

On a random note, would you be ok with Chad Muma or any of the QBs in rd 2?

This quote is….less than encouraging. There’s no way they got this far into the off-season without really knowing after last year…..is there? 

 I know they are a loyal team, and I love them for that, but at some point you have to say we need a decision. That point was before FA started. They’re gambling with the rest of the whole team for one person, and that’s not the way you have to play it in the NFL. I know it’s a tough situation he’s in, I lost my parents to a drunk driver, but you have to move on in life in one direction or another in order to advance in life. My thoughts are with him, but the team needs to know what’s happening and that’s a failure of the front office.

Should’ve made a hard deadline of start of FA for decision.

Even just his cap relief of $4.5 mill could get a solid starter with a low year 1 cap hit.
