The Wild Rover

Post by Steeldrama » Thu Feb 19, 2026 2:15 am

1T.) Kayden McDonald 6’3 326 DT Ohio State- My son makes fun of me for writing these mocks but was quick to remind me his buddy Kayden once had 7 sacks and a rushing touchdown in a game down the street at North Gwinnett HS. A space eater to free up my soon to be mocked “Wild Rover.”

2T.) Colton Hood 6’0 195 CB Tennessee- Using the capital from my Rd 1 trade down to zoom back up to snatch up this physical, FEISTY, Vol should he fall. Dig him.

3.) Ted Hurst 6’3 195 WR Georgia State- “Just stop.” Such fun highlights I just can’t help myself. Even if by some miracle the Steelers sign a viable FA WR like my guy Jauan Jennings I still want a big play capable day 2 WR.

3.) Zakee Wheatley 6’2 202 S Penn State- Of course I’m placating to the dahntahn crowd. Nittany Lion fans will roar with approval after their beloved Steelers select this plug and play starter.

3C) Kyle Louis 6’1 220 LB/Hybrid Pitt- “More placating?” Of course. I’m an entertainer. Sing with me now, “And it’s no nay never, no nay never no more, will I play the Wild Rover, no never no more…” Ohh I’m creating a seriously wild rover position my guy Kyle here. Let this cannon loose all over the damn field. This team leader is the future of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Will change a culture BADLY in need of change. YOU SUCK, Tomlin!

4.) Jaishawn Barham 6’3 243 EDGE/Hybrid Michigan- “scUM???” I pick my spots. This is the kid that head butted the ref in the Ohio State game this year. Slept on player that like my Wild Rover, Kyle Louis, can ATTACK from all over the front 7. Dazzle me, PAT. Show some balls and scrap that stale 3-4 bullshit.

4C.) Kage Casey 6’5 316 OL Boise State- Ok I just like the name. “Kage.” Gotta be a bad hombre to walk around with that name. Another versatile piece of clay for couch ridden OL guru James Campen to mold. Oh and FA OG Wyatt Teller apparently said goodbye to Browns fans today. Good vet signing if your beloved Steelers are so inclined.

5) Desmond Claiborne 5’10 195 RB Wake Forest- Big play weapon out of the backfield in the likely event Kenny Gainwell bolts via FA.

6.) Tanner Koziol 6’7 240 TE/Hybrid Houston- “Koooooz” Good gawd make it stop. More of big slot/H-Back type than a true TE. Tremendous hands and athleticism that a creative OC can…dazzle me McCarthy. Put down the Vinny’s pie and draw up some creative FUN plays. Give me a reason to stay off the golf course!

6C.) Lewis Bond 5’11 190 WR Boston College- Both my aunts were nuns up at Chestnut Hill so once in a while I mock a Golden Eagle just to remind myself they’re my only shot at getting into heaven. Not as exciting as Zay Flowers, this combine snub will carve out a nitch as a shifty, CLUTCH, underneath receiving option.

7.) Kolbey Taylor 6’3 190 CB Vanderbilt- Another combine snub, this 3 time Feldman Freak reportedly posted an 11’2 broad and ’40 vert. Numbers well worth a day 3 dart throw.

7C.) Drew Allar 6’5 241 QB Penn State- “WTF???” Sing with me now, “I’ve been a wild rover for many’s the year. I’ve spent all me money on whiskey and beer…” Steeler Fury will be pounding whiskey and beer alright if the Steelers burn a pick on this Penn Stater. Brace yourselves Steeler fan, it COULD happen.

Thanks as always for reading. Please comment on the players you like and those you don’t (Allar, Duh). Pandora snuck some DropKick Murphy’s on me at the gym today now I can’t get wild rover out of me bloody head.

I'll excuse Barham because he mostly played at Maryland, and I love McDonald and Louis, and dig Hood, Hurst and I'm warming up to Wheatley.

And hey, chants of Koooooz would at least give amusing Sopranos flashbacks.

Lol

I didn't even think of Doc Cusamano but THAT would actually be MUCH more tolerable than "Muuuuth"

Jeanie was hot by the way.

Love this one Drama.
In their current state, I hate everything about this organization.

Love the first 4 picks. I think Hood could go in the 1st but dream big.

Very late to get a OG. I see you signed a starting OG in FA
