I read that Lewan spit on TJ Watt the last time they played. Apparently he's pretty hated in the locker room. Not sure I would count on that signing.
In their current state, I hate everything about this organization.

Lewan is toast. any team that signs him may get 4 games out of him.

Just say no to unsportsmanlike, broken down scUM. I'd be good with Branch, and Fehoko has some interesting potential. I'm assuming you're thinking (probably right) that Ika is long gone by 2B and that's why we go Mazi (more scUM... and his name even sounds like Maize :evil: )

Who are the ‘three’ CBs?

I would see 4 CBs and 4 DL as obvious picks there, if you add your 3 OTs this pretty much sounds like “assume teams only draft positions the steelers are targeting”.

I’m a Pickett fan, but in that scenario maybe stroud or young is worth it at 17.

Im assuming Gonzales, Porter and Witherspoon are gone, those are they only corners I would take at 17.

Cam Smith, Kelee Ringo, or Emmanuel Forbes

There could easily be 6 CBs taken in the 1st round in this draft.

Correct, but I wouldn’t take any of those at 17, over Branch.

don’t want to be a broken record about this,

But have you watched a gametape of Branch (not highlights)?

Smith and Ringo fit the Steeler scheme perfectly ( unlike JPJ). I would be more than happy with either of them ( more happy with Trenton Simpson but...)

a lot of picking apart Ringo’s game has him falling, but honestly think he’s worth the extra look. JPJ and Smith will be 23 year old rookies; Ringo’s 20 (and two time starter on the champs). Odds are he’s going to get a lot better moving forward. I can pick holes in any of these guys, no Sauces.

Ringo is raw(technique) but better athletics than all the others. Plays decent zone and off man. Like Deion said when he covered the combine, these CBs do not know their craft. They know just enough to run their coach's system. They will all need to learn to play CB.

I I do know that JPJ looks like shit in off man and zone and he is really, really grabby.

How bout....

Meteoric fall due to off the field stuff. In Steeler fashion, 'SPRINTING' to the Podium.
17. Jalen Carter DL 6'3 314 Georgia

Ideal scenario for Steelers, their own Tremaine Edmunds-esque ILB prospect...
32. Drew Sanders LB 6'4 235 Arkansas

One of the deepest TE classes in recent memory. This dude is a BEAST. Exceptional In line blocker as well as pass catching machine.
If he's there? In Steeler fashion, 'SPRINTING' to the podium....
49. Darnell Washington TE 6'6 260 Georgia

Another Ideal scenario as well as HUGE NEED. If he's there...
80. J.L. Skinner S 6'4 212 Boise State

Steen is a solid prospect and is capable of swing tackle duties. Possible he even starts at some point, Great value if there....
120. Tyler Steen OT 6'6 320 Alabama

Likely won't fall this far, his upside is worth the 'sprint' to the podium if he's there...
236. Rejzohn Wright CB 6'2 193 Oregon State

Total 'Developmental' prospect with size, speed and hands...
243. Bryce Ford-Wheaton WR 6'4 221 West Virginia

Was kind of hoping the combine would shake up some mainstream/media mocks so I wouldn't have to constantly keep reading JPJr to Pittsburgh, but that has not come to pass.
