Before you blast a pick you have to come to a realization.... you might just not get what you want every time....
Let me go off the beaten path for a moment...
In life much like blow jobs us men simply don't get them as much as we would like from our women. We would love a good hob knob slob hobbis knobbis just get down there -> every day. As you get older hell you just hope she doesn't get a migraine when she sees ole pistol Pete, let alone getting her to bob on yer apple. (baby just imagine you are at a party bobbing for apples and your apple is on the very bottom it's fun honest)
You have to look at the good and not just focus in on well................................. what you don't get.
now bare with me let us review the picks so far.....
BUD
a fan might say ohhhh another project at LBer he will join the other two (Jarvis and Shazier) flailing around like lost puppies on the field with little production
another way to look at it is he slid because some teams reached on need....
I think with him over some other LBers what you will see early out of the gates is his tackle ability helping the run D out significantly, his ability to drop into coverage effectively, while being able to get to the QB quickly while perhaps he tweaks that part of his game with some Deebo and Peezy tutelage. (and his overall sack production wasn't as low as you might think of someone considered raw in that area)
I think most fans immediately see the value with this selection, so you won't need my win you over - pitch with this pick....

The little corner that could choo choo.
You might see it as a reach based off of need pick. The way the CBs started flying off the board, Tombert might have been like oh **** we better pick who we like and quickly.
He will never be a starter you say he sucks !
but then perhaps you look at his 10 INTs in his last year and his range and instincts and think ohhhhh well at the very least we should have a solid nickle corner, and the D can use improvement so any and all is welcomed. He seemingly improved on a year to year basis in college and for being slight in frame, he looks to be big in heart/effort.

This ****** can't catch! is that what you are thinking?
I think the Ravens did pretty well with their explosive WR that had hands issues. If he didn't need work in this area he simply wouldn't have lasted past round 1. His YPA is one of the best among explosive deep threat receivers. He is one of the best blockers out of all the WRs.
Maybe at worst you have a slight better DHB and at best a cross between Bolden and Ward.
But I am thinking a set of Antonio/Bryant/Coates might look pretty damn scary to opposing secondaries if it pans out.
And maybe if you flip pick two and three you feel more at ease
or maybe the sky is falling **** who knows
sitting back I can see why each player was drafted by the Steelers.... and I can clearly see the talent potential of each pick, knowing that each comes with some sort of question mark
**** welcome to the NFL draft from the very top of round 1's crab leg stealing goofy selection to the end of 1's Brown's bold brag of how he is the Patriots best pick of all time (Tom might disagree)
... to the end of 7 I think all we can hope for is to see a sign of how a player can be great, I think so far each selection has something we can point to and say yeah here is where they can excel ...succeed.
Overall I like what I am seeing, hopefully today we will see some more picks that can legitimately have a chance to see playing time.
I can say that with all three................. perhaps not a bad start.
