Problem is, I don't see the update for the Steelers/Cardinals trade (Marcus Gilbert - 207).

I have a bad feeling that that i will be losing alot of respect for the steelers and FO when this trade is finally done.

“Close to completion” is usually a good thing, especially if you are patron of the Orchids of Asia.

Not sure about that here...

That would be an interesting twist. AB + 1.20 for 1.4.

Pure speculation of course.
If they managed the 4th pick in the draft who is your dream pick?
No trade out.Make the pick.

Devin White if no trade down.
Although I’d try to drop a few spots to get another 3rd or 4th, and still land White.

Quinnen Williams --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Devin white.

I think Williams is a generational player. Aaron Donald level potential.

I know it's not the biggest need but you don't pass on players like that.

You could just switch to a 4-3.

Heyward, Hargrave, williams, tuitt

Bullies, man.

Josh Allen out of Kentuky has more upside than White too, but i would most like the trade down myself. Some team will be dying for Haskins

White has a ton of upside. I'm not as familiar with Allen, but people forget that White was a RB recruit. While he was a two way player in HS, he's still growing into being a LB.

It actually makes somes sense. They’re basically trading down in the first and picking up AB with it. They dont lose any picks this way. They still have 20/24/27/36 and get AB.

I’d much rather it be straight up for their 24th peronally.

Value-wise, such a swap is worth about pick #17.

I'd hope to trade down to about #10, and then pick-up like #41.

Click on that Wiki link now. The top ten picks all say Antonio Brown. Obviously the fans and idiots can edit stuff on there. Damn, i was getting my hopes up.

Not official until the league year starts... 13th?

Also, someone is pranking the wikipedia page

If the Steelers by some fucking miracle end up in the top 5....I wait until draft day and trade out.

I don't view a single player in this draft as elite....A few high quality prospects. A ton of good prospects zero elite IMO.

Take Williams he was dominated to the point of being benched against Clemson in the National Championship game after he was dominated to the point of being benched against OU

2 biggest games of the year 3 total tackles zero pressures zero sacks....He wasn't injured despite the claims by the media. Take away the LSU game and Williams is very similar to Issah Buggs a future 5th round pick. I view Williams as the next Bama front seven player to be a major bust

White wont be selected top 20...He is literally retarded. How LSU let him in and he continued to have eligibility is criminal. You can make retarded work. You cant make soft and retarded work

The knocks can be summed above. I literally have 40+ clips of the bum

Instincts are very average
Can be fooled by key fakes and misdirection
Coaxed out of position two different times by the same run play versus Alabama
Diagnosis can run behind
Too many false steps in initial movement
Gets caught behind climbing linemen and doesn't always fight to disengage
Not a natural knee-bender in space
Running backs consistently finish under his pads
Take-on technique needs plenty of work
Uses shoulder challenges with hands as an afterthought
Misses tackles when footwork and scrape balance get too loose
Hard flows to sideline lack leverage and patience
Relatively unchallenged as a coverage option

I dont do friendly wagers. I just bask and taunt when I am right

When the teams dig in on White I won't be shocked if his draft stock is like another former Bayou Bengal...La'El Collins

Serious red flags and accusations on the way...Accusations that will make him toxic and undraftable

His high school transgressions are well-known among decision makers, but you won't find anyone in the program who will say anything bad about White and his growth. He's revered and respected by coaches, teams, and fans -- moreso than almost any LSU player I've seen.

If there are rumors of accusations on the way, someone wants his stock to drop. I would be absolutely shocked if there were any meat.

Collins dropped because he got roped into an investigation and the rumors and innuendo got ahead of the real story.

Interesting stuff on White. I’m not sure what to make of it. Regardless, I’m still certain he’s going top 20... for better or worse.
If I were a NFL GM, I’d never draft a Saban Bama player. Maxed out and overrated. Bama is about the system, especially on defense.
