Really good but not great. By supercharged I just meant he's bigger and faster. Not in terms of talent necessarily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chieferific Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 DJ is sooo quick in and out of his cuts and with the ball in his hands. Long speed is good but it's the quickness that makes him "super charged" imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcash4 Posted April 28, 2022 Author Share Posted April 28, 2022 Not sure if anyone posted this, but some interesting Folwer notes: https://www.espn.com/nfl/insider/draft2022/insider/story/_/id/33811682/nfl-draft-2022-notes-rumors-last-minute-updates-potential-round-1-trades-rising-prospects-surprise-picks Quote Pittsburgh's quarterback intentions have been all over the map (welcome to draft season). Some believe they like Willis, others say Kenny Pickett (Pitt) would be their guy, but the majority leans toward Pittsburgh going with a different "need" position at No. 20, such as defensive or offensive line or corner. -------- The Skyy Moore connection with the Steelers is something to consider, and with Pittsburgh's penchant for taking receivers in the second round, Moore is one to watch there. The Western Michigan standout played with Mike Tomlin's son Dino at Shadyside Academy outside of Pittsburgh. Tomlin knows him well. The Steelers have the No. 52 pick, and Moore might not last that long. Jacksonville, which has the first pick of the second round, has done a lot of homework on him Trying to figure out who they would pick on the OL in the first based on that comment. I see all the fits for DL, CB, and I'll add WR who might be available -- but racking my brain for OL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penning is rated at or around #20 so unless Cross falls (possible) they take Penning or they'd have to "reach" for Fallele or Raimann. if they reach, it'll be for Raimann imo.

Possibly, but we are pretty consistent with picking players from schools where Colbert and or Tomlin go to Pro-Days and we only had a scout at Miss State. That's the hard part. I can't find a connection. Guys like Linderbaum, Johnson, and Penning would be good prospects and potentially available -- but we didn't send any of the big guys to their Pro Days. We did send our OL coach to A&M, so maybe Green? Edit: posted this before I saw your comment @Chieferific. We just don't have those general connections we see in the first with any of those guys. So it has me curious. Edited April 28, 2022 by Dcash4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QB/WR/CB or S in that order imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warfelg Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 Also a day two eye on: I know he tore his Achilles but keep an eye on David Ojobu of Michigan. I think he could be a draft and stash for us. Tomlin was the only coach to check on him and I’ve heard he’s kept in touch. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly couldn't remember so I googled it and boy -- apparently more people than I thought had that opinion on Jahan. I think i first hear it on a Ringer pod. But this is from the athletic: "He is an NFL starter in the Diontae Johnson mold with better hands and punt-return skills.” I really like Jahan, I would take him in a heartbeat at 20.

I missed the with hands part. It’s been a long two days. Played in a golf tournament yesterday. 36 holes in 39 degrees with 20-30 mph winds and flurries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see that happening but it just shows he hasn't been forgotten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
