all we have is a fourth, a sixth, and two sevenths that probably aren't anything but practice squad fodder.

I absolutely package a sixth and a seventh for a fifth if I can. they tend to undervalue those last two rounds and while some make the team, many are cut regardless of how much potential they have.....

1.OT. Im actually happy with the interior right now… but I want more options at tackle… id have gone with one much higher than this

2. ILB.. if bush is indeed going to be out next year we best get his replacement in here now. I think you could find a project guy late

3. S. Its hard to get a guy better than edmunds this late, but you could get a project for next year or the year after

4. CB yeah i hate drafting them, but Sutton is a free agent after the year, and one injury makes that unit go from ok to layne and pierre carrying the show

5. a backup RB... these are easy to get this late.

6 DT. I just dont think you find the guy you want this late, so its down the list... plus adams has potential. it will be higher next year
 
Just a handful of names...

RB: Isaiah Spiller, Dameon Pierce
OT: Daniel Faalele, Rasheed Walker
CB: Dyon McCollum, Coby Bryant
 
I think we need an OT, a CB or S, a WR, and a RB

OTs left: Faalele, Walker, Diesch, Eze
CBs left: Woolen, McCollum, Armour-Davis, Bryant, Jobe, Castro-Fields
Ss left: McKinnley, Mathis, O'Neal, Bell
WR left: Austin, Shakir, Phillips, Melton, Ross
RBs left: Spiller, Pierce, White, Chandler, Haskins, Williams
 
Steelers gotta go CB here in the 4th Round as we need Depth at that postion. I doubt they bring back Haden and all they really have is Cam Sutton and Akhello Witherspoon. If we suffer injuries in our secondary we could be in big trouble Defensively. They need to address that position next.....without question. I was really hoping they would get Andrew Booth Jr from Clemson....that kid is going to be a shut down corner in the NFL for the Vikes.,...but I'm happy we got Pickens too it helps soften the loss of Juju and gives us another guy to potentially replace Dionte Johnson who is going to want too much $$$$.

Here to hoping we get a solid CB in Round 4.:beers:
 
So my unscientific wants

I mean the ideal get right now has to be Faalele, but he wont last 33 picks... you probably have to package next years fourth with this years to go get him

6th or 7th round :

(Ideally they trade back into the fifth, but if they dont....

DT Tayland Humphrey the best all around NT prospect left
DT Marquan McCall a beast who isnt going to do much other than eat double teams
QB Cole Kelley - 6'7" and legit talent.... he would ideally push mason off the team, or at least be a practice squad QB in the wings
RB/FB/Hback/TE Conner Heyward.... universal backup and fine option at Hback, which we should use more this year

I might have been selling the position a little short. They signed Levi Wallace. and Id rather them stay away from development CBs... there may be some diamonds in the rough out there that dont need massive overhauls though....... Woolen was on a good amount of sleeper lists, so was Jaylen watson...
The one Pitt player I was actually hoping we'd draft this season in the early late rounds was Damarri Mathis... He is only 5-11, but fast and extremely good... the only two CBs with a better completion % against over the last 3 years went as the top two CBs in this draft.... we lack speedy CBs and usually like the shifty quick ones... he gives us both, and 5-11 is a normal size for a CB... not outstanding, but not a 5-9 midget either
 
Don't forget Tycen Anderson as a S option in this round as well
 
Dline and Oline. dont draft a CB sign Haden back at a fair deal
