Really would shock me if he didn’t upgrade one side outside. His talent level is just impressively high. If he didn’t have the arm length that would give me pause. But he does. no idea if he ends up at RT or LT. But with his tenacity mixed with athleticism we are talking a top ten talent. I think if the talent level was lower it would make more sense to ponder a potential move inside.
Or the idea they have two highly paid FA signees at guard and then drafted one of their likely future replacements in the 4th round. Also, I read that this is the deepest tackle class in years and then all the same draft analysts as it gets closer to the draft start saying all these guys need to kick inside to guard because they're too short, arms aren't long enough, slow feet, aren't good in space. It's a wonder anyone can play tackle in the NFL.
Did I say that there wasn't?
You seem to be missing the point, as usual. THEIR grades, meaning the national services, all rate the Steelers draft highly, even relative to scale. It's not just the opinion of only "biased" fans on this site.
What I didn't notice is you providing a source from which these grades were procured. And regardless of where they came from, the Steelers are still tied for the tenth best mark out of the 32 teams on your list there.
Trent Williams - 6-5 - 34.5
On this board maybe. Tomlin was almost immediately asked about his height. Fautanu is in the 3 percentile in height. It’s a concern.
I never said he was a guard for certain. Did you not notice when he was drafted and all the graphics listed him as a guard? Just went over your head I guess.
You are just too dense to understand. I said, and please read this over and over until it sinks it. They should try him at tackle, give him every opportunity to be a tackle, but if he’s unsuccessful then move him to guard or center. That is what I have said repeatedly. Just because you can’t understand that not being a blinded homer isn’t a prerequisite for being a Steelers fan.
“Group of posters”
So you and this board is biased. Yes. I agree.
I did this myself. These are my grades. As you can see the Steelers had a good draft in my opinion. But if I give 25 out of 32 teams A’s but I’m sure 25 fan bases would agree with that assessment.
Yeah, I watched him on McAfee today (Deebo made an unexpected appearance!) and I think he was trying to be ambiguous towards it. Omar has always kept his stuff close to vest. I know there weren’t 20 1st round PAC 12 players on their board, and Omar and Tomlin’s predraft presser, mentioned they don’t waste time predicting or have mocks for all slots before their spot. They just have a list of players relative to their pick in the round (20th pick). Having those six QBs go by the DEN pick, and the lack of defense until after PIT’s selection made it the perfect storm to getting a top 10 player.
Like I said, he was probably just deflecting and opining “coincidences”. A Colbert era mantra.
Um, no. I gave the Steelers' draft a B+, which would match the lowest grade given out of the seven national sites which I listed. Of course there's going to be some fans who are biased. I'm not one of them.
Sorry, but you can't possibly follow all 32 NFL teams closely enough to give each and every one an accurate grade. If you had that kind of ability, you'd be working in an NFL front office somewhere, not trying to bullshlt and insult people on a Steelers discussion board.
How did you like them taking Penix? I thought it fortified the present and their future, at least attempted to.
I know it's not on your typical MO, but please explain how this is. Just randomly calling something "BS" does not make it so.
My nephew is a ATL fan, he’s still in a fog about it. He’s trying to rationalize after Cousins second year ends they can cut him and have a manageable dead cap hit. But by that time Penix will be 27. He’s hoping maybe a situation like Ben happens, where the starter (Maddox) gets hurt and the rookie backup steals the show.
So I gave our draft a B. I guess that plus means the difference.
so I’m not allowed an opinion on any of the drafts and only nfl front office people have the ability to know what team needs are and analyze personnel decisions. 
Well, what they do in their private time is not my concern.
He played well the last two years with no ACL. Williams has not.Considering Payton Wilson doesn't even have an ACL, it didn't stop the Steelers from signing him.
i'm not going to explain how you believing you know more than the front office of an nfl team is bullshit
Vague mist as your explanation but demand specifics from others. Typical double standards. LMFAO.
Those were the QBs that were on the team last year, running the "scheme" laid out by the OC who, like those QBs, is no longer a part of the team.
Yep. Straight back and out of play.
Oh man you better put a + next to that B!!
The difference of what? My point is that you and I are both below the national pundits in grading the Steelers draft, and nobody but nobody that I have seen has them graded under your mark of B. So what is it, exactly, that you're arguing about?
You're allowed to have an opinion on whatever your little heart desires, bud. What I said was there's no way you can be that well-informed about every single NFL team and the ins and outs of their free agency/draft processes unless this is your full-time job. Which I'll go ahead and assume that it isn't.
