Steelers outside of possibly Bud Dupree will still be adding free agents pre and post draft.

I am saying more buddies will be added.

Steelers will add a third string QB in the draft and it will take place in the 7th. By then, Rudy the red nosed third stringer still won't have a new home.

I am buying like it is a slab of hickory smoked great value bacon.

A slot corner or a slot safety... and a slot WR will be drafted somewhere within rounds 1-4.

When in Vegas...

The Steelers first pick will come from the power 5. Perhaps the 2nd and 3rd as well.

If someone is knocking would you let him in?

A drafted OT could come in and start game 1. (A left or right)

So shall it be said so shall it be...

Somewhere within the Steelers picks a Houston player will be selected.

We can call it the Coolie midnight special.

The Steelers will trade up or down in the draft.

Take a step to the left.

Bigdot will be used to gain a 5th or 6th round pick.

One man enter one man leave.

The Steelers will step away from their run to the podium approach and actually entertain calls.

Blondie says call me.

Joey Porter Jr. is a number 2 corner, not a teams number 1.

Drum roll please.

It won't be much more, but they'll have a hole or two even after the draft.

If there is a talent option who slips, yes, otherwise they'll find a cheap FA.

Slot corner and receiver are the two biggest holes left on the roster. No reliable starters at either spot currently on the roster.

The Steelers first pick will come from the power 5. Perhaps the 2nd and 3rd as well. - BUY
Maybe one out of the first four picks will come outside of the P5.

A drafted OT could come in and start game 1. (A left or right) - BUY
Only if they're drafted in the first or at 32 otherwise I think the incumbents start.

Sorry, Coolie.

The Steelers will trade up or down in the draft. - BUY
They are going from the fourth through the seventh without a pick.

Bigdot will be used to gain a 5th or 6th round pick. - SELL
Not in this year's draft, but maybe for 2024 after training camp ends.

I need to see it to believe it.

A high No. 2 or a below average 1. Either way, I think he'll be good, just not at the top of my list of prospects I'd like to see on the Steelers.
 
60% emotion/40% logic dictates my response, but it could easily be 70/30, because I don't do any in depth analysis, and no one would care if I did anyway.

LT has to be the first pick, even if the top 3 are gone, it would be Anton Harrison. The opportunity doesn't come around often, so to me at least, it's obivious.

Branch has been there at 32 in a lot of the mocks, and this would be my choice at 32. If not, maybe trade back a few picks and still get the TE Darnell Washington.

At 49 they have to take and LB IMO, again worth nothing, Simpson, Campbell or Sanders.

Trading back at 32 would give them a few extra picks, and if they trade Dotson, another one. CB's are fairly deep and there are still some good safeties at 80. For some reason and with absolutely no justification I like Darius Rush at 6'2" at corner. Jordan Battles, or Gervon Dexter could still be in the picture.

Another receiver, depths at the DL and edge, maybe at QB (Toon) in the 7th, if they don't sign Mason.

Knowing they will likely not do any of this is OK with me, because I'm just typing on a keyboard.

If there is a BIG signing, it will be BUD DUPREE. Other than that is will be camp fodder

Steelers outside of possibly Bud Dupree will still be adding free agents pre and post draft.

Hopefully they resign WJIII, I see either a CB or more LB depth

Steelers will add a third string QB in the draft and it will take place in the 7th. By then, Rudy the red nosed third stringer still won't have a new home.

If Clayton Tune is still there, they take him in the 7th

A slot corner or a slot safety... and a slot WR will be drafted somewhere within rounds 1-4.

Slot Receiver out of UH is the obvious choice - Dell will also solidify the kick return duties

The Steelers first pick will come from the power 5. Perhaps the 2nd and 3rd as well.

This is just about a lock

A drafted OT could come in and start game 1. (A left or right)

Hopefully pick #17 provides this player -

Somewhere within the Steelers picks a Houston player will be selected.

Yes please, in order of preference - Dell 3rd - Parish 7th - Tune 7th - Owens 7th (Parish or Tune a round earlier if they can trade and get a 6th)

The Steelers will trade up or down in the draft.

Hopefully someone offers them a hell of a deal to drop back a few spots from #32 and they get an extra 3rd and a 5th or 6th

Bigdot will be used to gain a 5th or 6th round pick.

Yes - would be an excellent move

The Steelers will step away from their run to the podium approach and actually entertain calls.

Not unless someone is there to crack their kneecaps with a pipe...

Joey Porter Jr. is a number 2 corner, not a teams number 1.

Yes - and I hope the Steelers are not feeling pressured to take him at 17 if available

Know why I called it the Coolie midnight special? I figured it would be around that time they would pick a Houston player if that. That is going off their past approach. This might be the draft that breaks those trends though. But usually round 4-7 was when they ventured away from the power.

Yeah Jax likes to rip up his toys too. He has indoor and outdoor ones that last. But I do a lot of sewing. When he rips a hole in one of them we put it away and after three or four I then fix the holes.

The outdoor one he runs around with we call the dildo. (yeah I have issues but we already knew that!)

It had stood the test of time. When the yard is dry we play him for 30 minutes. He runs back n forth with his dildo, sometimes we throw it sometimes he plays keep away. When the yard is rain wet we go for long walks. Our daily routine.

 
Quite honestly, Parish intrigues me to no end. If he isn’t drafted, I’d l;Ike to see him be one of the STEELERS UDFA signings.

Tune & Dell won’t be available as UDFAa.

If you want someone to answer your questions make your own thread. But don't turn my thread into a Tomlin ***** thread there is plenty of them. If you reply like a twatwaffle you will get treated like a twatwaffle, twatwaffle. Got it? Good.

Buy - But only after the draft

Buy - F/A QB's are trash and too expensive

Sell - Too many other holes to fill "That's what she said"

The Steelers first pick will come from the power 5. Perhaps the 2nd and 3rd as well.

Buy - But only 2 of the first three picks

A drafted OT could come in and start game 1. (A left or right)

Buy - Duh!

Somewhere within the Steelers picks a Houston player will be selected.

Sell - Only because I want to hear Coolie cry like a little *****

The Steelers will trade up or down in the draft.

Buy - Omar is agressive, I like that!

Bigdot will be used to gain a 5th or 6th round pick.

Sell - no one wants that bum!

Sell - Omar will be calling to get what he wants

Buy - He is way too grabby in college...NFL WR's are going to feast on Porterhouse
 
Steelers outside of possibly Bud Dupree will still be adding free agents pre and post draft.

mostly Buy, but it depends on your take on what adding free agents entails…they absolutely need to add some… tge training camp roster is supposed to be around 90 players and they have 67 under contract. Sure 7 draft picks, maybe more with trades and probably a dozen udfa’s or so…but there is probably 3 or 4 spots you want to have filled before then ….however i think the most they do is bargain basement shop from here on out except maybe dupree…I don’t think that there are going to be huge adds from here on out. .

Steelers will add a third string QB in the draft and it will take place in the 7th. By then, Rudy the red nosed third stringer still won't have a new home.

Buy. the Steelers will either draft a qb in the 7 th or sign one as a udfa… a young arm is definitely coming in .

A slot corner or a slot safety... and a slot WR will be drafted somewhere within rounds 1-4.

I want to buy on this… I think I will, but if they had a fifth I wouldn’t… I think they like that kid out of WVU, and they probably could get him in the fifth...

The Steelers first pick will come from the power 5. Perhaps the 2nd and 3rd as well.

buy… i mean that’s really betting on the favorites… you should have picked a specific conference or at least grouped the big ten and SEC…

A drafted OT could come in and start game 1. (A left or right)

Sell unless it is Broderick Jones…. I think its way more likely that someone takes over midseason than right out of the gate.

Somewhere within the Steelers picks a Houston player will be selected.

sell. Houston has a couple guys I like which means Cinci will draft them immediately before us

The Steelers will trade up or down in the draft.

buy. I think Kahn is a mover.

Bigdot will be used to gain a 5th or 6th round pick.

they won’t want to go into the draft with no fifth or sixth, and he is the most trade-able piece in a suddenly deep position

The Steelers will step away from their run to the podium approach and actually entertain calls.

Buy… if not then its probably not the GM finalizing picks. Kahn is more executive than scout… he will explore asset value more than seasons past .

Joey Porter Jr. is a number 2 corner, not a teams number 1.

this is why I was iffy on him, but he could learn like Ike did… he was a guy who was probably too physical early on and grew into a 1-

***the real question is does Cinci trade up over us to get Branch? It feels like it’s destined to happen like that
