The Raiders take Rhamondre Stevenson RB. IMO as good as any RB in this draft not named Najee

The Raiders RB unit now looks like Jacobs Richard Drake Stevenson Ingold. Thats as good a unit as there is in the NFL. The Chiefs Chargers and Broncos better look out

I was totally sweating it, seeing my number 2 Steelers Center prospect and my number 3 Steeler Center prospect go off the board. This is probably the player I am most emotionally invested in terms of who I would really like to see become a Pittsburgh Steeler.

On paper and in reality center is perhaps the most obvious need. I pretty much have built my whole draft strategy around getting the center I wanted. And because of all the other needs, I couldn’t risk taking him too early for fear of not being able to fill in the holes enough to keep the water in the boat.

This player faced power five competition, played playoff football extremely well, played on one of the two best offensive line units in the country… one that has produced excellent NFL offensive linemen over the last few years.

Physically and athletically he’s pretty much a direct comp for Maurkice Pouncey. Although he wasn’t a center in college, his play at his other positions showed the kind of short area footwork and ability to get out to the outside and second level—the way that a good running team really needs.

After his performance at the senior bowl, where he played center reps most of the week in practice and dominated in one on ones, practices, and in the game, I’m truly surprised he hasn’t risen up ratings and on draft boards.

Anyhow, obviously like the player a lot. It seems like he has that natural feel for snapping the ball stepping in the bucket and moving laterally all at the same time without having to think too hard about it or make it a series of separate motions. You know, just like what Maurkice Pouncey tried to do on the first play of the playoff game and has struggled with for the last couple of years. Let us hope this fella comes back home to Pittsburgh and continues the tradition of All-Pro, dynamite, athletic centers that has covered more than 30 years of Steelers football.

With the 128th pick in the 2021 SteelerFury Board Draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers select:

Spent half the Florida game covering Kyle Pitts and gave up one catch for 8 yards

He stopped Najee on the goal line, had a PBU against Devonta and a TFL on Jalen Waddle…ALL IN ONE DRIVE

This kid only gave up 7 catches all year.

Closing speed on a 4.38 stick.

With the 132nd pick in the SteelerFury draft, the Cleveland Browns select, Tyree Gillespie, S, Missouri

Browns Draft Picks:

1.) Christian Barmore DT Alabama
2.) Joseph Ossai EDGE Texas
3.) Payton Turner DE Houston
3) Stephon Gilmore CB- Trade w/Patriots
4.) Monty Rice LB Georgia

Fixing the run game is a huge priority for the Steelers. Having a TE1 who pretty much can't block anyone means the team will struggle in inside run game. In a perfect world, they'd have a big, inline TE who was not only a great blocker but who was a great receiver, too. However, with the kinds of offenses Matt Canada has run, an H-Back type has always been a big part of it. He has effectively weaponized lesser athletes, RBs, slot WRs, & H-Backs from the wing position in non-traditional ways (see Jaylen Samuels becoming a superstar), where lesser OCs can't figure out how to use such players in traditional offensive sets.

This player has several good traits... good hands, good athlete, way better than production would indicate as a receiver, selfless teammate, good ability to separate at the top of his route, good at the contested catch, and runs after the catch like a RB. But his best trait is a real outlier: he is the best blocker in the TE class. Tommy Tremble may have gotten more press, Kyle Pitts may have steeped up his blocking game, and Freiemuth may have gotten the accolades... but this player has a highlight reel of blocks. Just look at the Cam Akers highlights and you'll see number 6 making the block at the point of attack more often than not. And then there was the Senior Bowl, where he showed he has an all-around game that his teams never fully took advantage of. They're loss, our gain.

With the 137th pick in the SteelerFury Board Draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers select:

About that "prioritize improving the run game" thing... We've added a LT and a C who played on the top two OLs in CFB and who are both great in the run game. We added the best blocking TE/H-Back in the class. We added an elusive, tough former QB who fights for yards and ran 4.41.

And we recognize the need for some speed adn have added a 4.41 RB.

But you can never have enough AND the Steelers cupboard going into the draft was totally bare at one position group above all others. The RB group before the draft was perhaps the worst in the NFL and the worst Steelers group I can recall––and I go back 50+ years.

To wit:
The presumed starter Benny Snell should be out of football or become a FT STs guy, He's not quick but he's also slow. He's as useless in the passing game as Ebron is as a run-blocker.
The "change of pace guy" McFarland ran 4.44 but only a 1.60 10-yard split. He's also functionally illiterate in the passing game.
Jaylen Samuels was a college superstar, put up a great draft workout, came in and was very effective as RB2 in his rookie year, and promptly fell off the face of the earth. I'm willing to give him a chance going into this year because the guy who made him a superstar is taking over the offense, but how many years of poor play will it take to stop hanging on what he did before 2019?

The RB we add here was good enough that if the RB draft had gone a different way earlier, we had planned on taking him to be our RB1. On tape, he is a tough runner, who finds tiny creases, has great vision, and gets chunks. He is solid in the passing game, with great body control and catch radius for a RB.

His superpower is that he is a TD machine, running around, over, through, and by defenses... scoring a ridiculous 46 TDs in only 42 college games, in a committee backfield. And zero fumbles.

Despite his slightly "Directional State" status, the fellows over there on the South Side may have noticed this kid because he was the one running behind the "Directional" player they draft last year who has the look of draft-steal, future All-Pro. Could this be 2 for 2?

And, oh, yeah he just ran an official 4.38 40. The days of Benny Snail Football have come to an end. We hope.

With the 140th pick in the 2021 SteelerFury Board Draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers run a 4.38 on the way to the podium to select:
