mwalker Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Well, this has certainly been the most unpredictable Steelers draft I've seen in a long time. Edmunds has been discussed enough. Washington wasn't a huge surprise I guess, but following up with Rudolph, well, I just wouldn't have thought it'd fall that way. Kind of cool for those two to continue their career together, so I actually don't mind the depth they both provide. I like Rudolph. Okorofar, well, I also just found that really surprising with what I thought 'our needs' were. Munchak certainly is getting a project with upside. Anyhow, that was then, and we'll see. As for 4-7, there's still some players that could really help us. Folks that interest me, with my favs in bold... ILB G.Avery (this fella is rocked up and tested his *** off. I really like him.) ILB M.Kiser (he tested way more athletically than folks thought) ILB S.Moore (would be strange after Edmunds for me, but...) ILB J.Jewell (I just feel like his lack of speed is a weakness we don't need more of) OLB J.Sweat (his injury history is scaring folks off, but man, what a drop)OLB O.Okoronkwo (I really liked him. Wonder if he could play inside?) OLB M.Haynes (Same as above, or just as a situational rusher) OLB D.Ejiofor (He's a bit more 4-3, but can play)CB A.Averett (he's a player) CB Q.Meeks (great size / speed)CB H.Hill (I really like him, despite the off field baggage) CB K.Tolliver (he's good value back here) TE I.Thomas (plus athlete, move TE) TE C.Herndon (I think he'll be a better pro) RB N.Hines (Do we want a change of pace back?)RB K.Ballage (big, strong and fast, but not too elusive)RB M.Walton (without injury history, he's already gone. great value) DL T.Settle (young, huge and full of potential) FS D.Elliott (I still like him quite a bit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rivers Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Oko and Settle in that order for me. If we get that for the D, it might help. Getting them playing time will be another story but first get them on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPeezy55 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Steelers down to only 3 picks tomorrow and its almost a guarantee 1 will be offense, which is unfortunate. But I can see them double dipping at WR or going RB Would love Settle and then BPA of Edge/ILB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR43 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Do we really need another corner? Two credible starters with Cam Sutton and Mike Hilton. We also have a raw player in Brian Allen, who I am curious in seeing how he progressed since his rookie year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Allen might be in for some big things. The addition of Bradley should really help Allen and Sutton. Also don’t sleep on Keion Adams. Check out what the draft people were saying about him last year. Fluid, athletic, great dip and bend, Keion Adams is going to be on the active roster this year and by the end of the year will be ahead of Chick on the depth chart. He’s athletic enough to be a very solid special teams player. He’ll be an improvement over Moats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I'm going to go in a specific direction with who I think we might take. If we go WR, imo it'll be one of these 3: WR Equanimeous St. Brown WR Deontay Burnett WR Desean Hamiliton I don't think St. Brown will make it to us but that size...if he does, don't be shocked if he's the pick in round 5. TE: Adam Brennamen Ian Thomas RB: Kalen Ballage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlevinKelevra Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 the way they've navigated this draft so far they should really be trying to package and trade back into the 4th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
