I wanted a slot CB drafted in the worst way but with Bishop and Scott they do have some potential to fill the role. They are both about the same spec wise, 5'9" 185 pounds, Bishop ran a 4.39 40 at his pro day, Scott was a former 4th round pick and ran a 4.42 at the combine. Scott did get a lot of re...

Tomlin needs to get over himself with the fumbles. All running backs will fumble. There was this RB once, pretty good, but he fumbled 20 times in his first 3 seasons and would have some 53 fumbles for his career, nearly averaging a fumble every 3 games started. Who was this RB? Adrian Peterson. Ther...

I am kinda of surprised by the news but also at the same time not surprised. One can make all the excuses that Harris didn't have a proper offense line, that there were no holes, the offensive design sucked, etc, but I find those claims mostly wring false. He didn't run a 40 coming out of Alabama, f...

This was not a very good year to just throw away a starting #2 WR like DJ and try and go dumpster diving for a suitable replacement. It turns out that WRs just aren't a dime a dozen, aren't easily replaceable. What bothers me a lot is that some people haven't learned anything from the DJ situation. ...

I understand the premise of a hindsight draft but to me it doesn't make much sense. If you take a Brian Thomas JR at WR in round 1 (20), doesn't that make the whole complexion of the draft change moving after?? Do we really see Zach Frazier still there at 51? Or Roman Wilson at 84? Or Payton Wilson ...

To further add to the 'Bigs' vs. 'Littles" debate about whether Arthur Smith has any use for small slot WRs. In my notes, the two years he was OC at Tennessee, the 'Bigs', meaning 6'2-6'4 210+ pound big WRs combined for 267 catches 28 TDs. The 'Littles', the 5'8'-10" 170-185 pound WRs had 93 catches...

After my long hiatus to parts unknown, I had posted this concerning Arthur Smith and the WRs in his offense: *****I get that Smith uses the TEs but with his time at Tennessee and Atlanta I have been surprised at just how much he uses slot WRs, and how both of those teams brought in players that were...

Definitely a developmental pick. Dude has the length and athleticism to play 3-4 DE, but he'll need to bulk up. Hopefully he's the 2nd coming of Brett Keisel Not sure how 32” arms make see length as a positive. Overall, very similar to Loudermilk height/weight/arm/athletics. I have no problem with ...

I had a feeling they would draft a guard this year, it is only smart business. James Daniels AND Nate Herbig are in the last year of their contracts. They have a combined cap hit of $16.627 million this year. So, you draft a guard like McCormick in the 4th round this year, do the same next year and ...

What i don’t want to see is us drafting a worse player because we are concerned with how the better player ‘fits’, whether that means not taking a small WR because we want big ones, or not taking a big because that’s what we already have, or not taking a slot because we plan to run a stupid scheme....

Has to be the best center they have rated other than Barton obviously even if they have to move up, although I hate the idea of losing picks. That's the only thing that makes sense with what they intend to do on offense. Running the 90's style offense the fraud in charge wants doesn't make sense wi...

Honestly, Darius Rush and Cory Trice are better fits than most of these outside CBs. The next CB they’re going to pick will either be a pure NCB or will be an outside/inside guy. Andre Phillips? Green. Sainristil. They have Luc Barcoo and a bunch of nothing at NCB. Green at Florida St. faced a lot ...

The run on WRs is pretty concerning. What I don't want to see is the Steelers draft a WR that is virtually similar to what we already have on the roster. So, we pick 19th in round 2, pick 51, that is 18 players that will be off the board. I can see 5 WRs at least that go in that span. If all we have...

I had very mixed opinions on this year's tackle class. I see a lot of prospects that are limited in a way, that are only able to play one position. Latham and Fuaga are RT only I think. Fashanu, the Penn St kid, I view as more of a finesse LT, I don't see him being as good of a run blocker. His arm ...

Never understood the hate for DJ. Even last year, I personally had more gripes with George Pickens than I did with DJ. Pickens in the short and intermediate areas is sloppy with his routes. And there were times he had problems getting his feet in bounds, there were times when he failed to put in any...

I saw it mentioned somewhere that Connor Heyward already has a FB designation assigned to him. Of the three former players under Arthur Smith, I only expect Patterson to make the team. Van Jefferson and Pruitt will be camp bodies that will help teach Smith's offense but ultimately will be cut and/or...

When you go to the various mock draft simulators and do some mock drafts, various trends start to happen over and over again. And yes, these are mock simulators and the trading of picks can border on ridiculous, but I think it does show some trends that I think will happen come draft time. One. I do...

I agree on being skeptical of the Center class this draft and have genuine uneasy feelings on a number of these top prospects. Let us take a look back to 2021 NFL Draft. Remember when that supposedly was a good center class too? You had all kind of names, the Landon Dickersons, Creed Humphries. But ...

Cam too old?? He is 3 years younger than Calais Campbell! Who is still playing and will turn 38 in September, he will sign with some team eventually. Cam's game was never about speed or quickness or elite athletic ability. It was always about those long arms and strength and those type of power play...

I think they give Cam a 2 year extension and probably take most of his $16 million base salary and convert it into a signing bonus which they then can spread out over 3 years of the extension. Cam has a $22,406,250 cap hit for 2024. Can't do anything about the pro rated signing bonus of $4,050,000 o...

I would agree with that Ice. It did seem like the players drafted would be outstanding on special teams for a year or two and then move into the starting lineup on offense or defense. I remember Orpheus Roye was a 6th round pick who finally got on the field as a starter in year 3 and 4 and had 8 sac...

I think B2B may be on to something with Hunter Nourzad from Penn State. He should be available with the late 3rd or 4th. That would give them more flexibility with the first 3 picks. My sleeper pick at Center is the dude from Duke. And no I am not talking about Graham Barton. Barton is regarded as ...

I think Omar and the Steelers should approach James Daniels and say hey, we want to give you a a 3 year extension and let you be the next great Steeler Center!!! James Daniels was a Center for Iowa in college, he played one season at Center for the Chicago Bears. He has 33 3/4 inch arms, has the len...

McLaurin is not a 3rd WR, you trade for him, he is very well your #1 WR. He probably is the high volume WR that George Pickens needs to be his Batman that he can play Robin to. Make no mistake, we are going to miss DJs route running and separation and easy completions to move the chains and sustain ...

I really question investing heavily into the WR position with Arthur Smith as the OC. They need something behind Pickens, and Pickens insurance because he's a fucking headcase, but if Smith is running his offense it's more TE-centric and the third WR is basically a prop. And we're talking about giv...

While Matt Canada has been exposed to the world as being a thorn in the side of this team, I'm surprised at the lack of blame pointed at this OL coach and his concepts. They seem to turn good OL into below average performers as they continue to hunt for one handed punches and knocking 300 lb profes...

Funny, I read the post and immediately thought to myself, I know what TJ Watt does but what the hell does Myles Garrett do that people argue that he is BETTER than Watt? Myles Garrett to me is the player that personifies what STD accuses Watt of being. Garrett beats up on lowly teams, pads his sack ...

I genuinely thought Harris had turned a corner in the second half of last season. You could see games where he was not dancing as much, was running behind his pads, hitting holes with more authority, even making himself skinny in the hole, doing subtle moves. Now this year he is back to the same old...

Watching Mahomes run tonight was frustrating to me. It was almost as if defenders were being gentle with him, like they were afraid to knock the shit out of him. I love me some NFL football but sometimes the way the game is currently played makes me want to puke. Your just noticing this now? This h...
