With the 56th pick,the pittsburgh steelers select....

[polamalubeast]

Who do you think the Steelers will drafted tomorrow?

[7willBheaven]

The way this first round went i have no idea who they will DRAFT tomorrow. Lots of talent still there though.

[Devilsdancefloor]

martin, massie? oh how sweet that would be

[ShutDown24]

Kendricks, Massie, Chapman would probably be my favorites. All are probably better than where we are selecting but hey, so was DeCastro :chuckle:

[Iron Steeler]

My list wish list...

Oline:Jonathan Martin / Corday Glenn / Amini Silatolu
Scat back:Lamar miller / Lamichael James/ Isaih Pead
Def need: Alaemda ta,amu/ Courtney upshaw / zack brown/ trumaine Johnson / chase mannifield

Any of those guys I'll be happy.... Kinda hoping some of the online studs drop to us so we can solidify they line.

[El-Gonzo Jackson]

I think Ta'amu, Chapman, Schwartz or if they somehow like Kendricks. I cant help but think Ta'amu will be gone and they take Schwartz or Chapman in the 2nd.

Then, in the 3rd they look at an ILB, Pead or the NT if they didnt get him in the 2nd.

[SteelerFanInStl]

I'd love for Kendricks to be there in the 2nd.

[ShutDown24]

I could still see the pick being Brandon Brooks or Silatolu.

[El-Gonzo Jackson]

I could still see the pick being Brandon Brooks or Silatolu.I think its tough to go guard and then back it up with another guard. Maybe an OT like Schwartz or Osemele, but interior line isnt a premium position. You get one blue chip and one solid guy like Foster and its all good.

I really hope it isnt Kendricks, but that normally means it will be. I curse my own picks.

Colbert just said he'd have no issue taking another guard in the second round. While that's the PC thing to say, I believe it. If they have a guard rated at the top of the board at 56 I don't doubt they select him.

And I think guard is still a bigger need than tackle, even with DeCastro.

I agree, lets plug up that last guard position, but it may be smarter to draft a linebacker this next round.

If value is equal there is no doubt I'd take the ILB. But if the guard is rated higher, I don't just take the linebacker because we selected DeCastro in the first.

[Chidi29]

Worthy? I really love Chapman like the rest of you.

But the obvious, albeit generic, answer is the guy that offers the best value. BPA and that usually puts you in a good spot.

[The Duke]

Tamu Chapman or Worthy

one has to be there, and we simply won't pass on any. Hoping for Chapman though....

[suitanim]

Looking at who visited, I don't see them taking NT at #2. All the guys they had in outside of Poe are projected mid-to-late rounders. Unless I'm missing someone, Guyton and Fangupo are mid-rounders, and Hughes and Hicks are late round/UDFA guys. They may not take NT until later...

I'm hoping for Kendricks to still be sitting there.

[Aussie_steeler]

Ronnell Lewis OLB Oklahoma Jnr

[SteelerFanInStl]

Why don't you like Kendricks? Who do you like at ILB?

[El-Gonzo Jackson]

Why don't you like Kendricks? Who do you like at ILB?
I watched some games of Cal and he stands around and lets the play come to him. When confronted with an O lineman blocking him in the run game he stands there like a deer in the headlights and gets blown over.

Google up the Stanford game and watch it........its not just DeCastro and Jon Martin blocking him, but their no name RT just pushes him in the endzone from the 5 yard line for a TD. Doestn play with leverage, but puts up good combine numbers. Not a fan, but Steelers could still pick him.

[suitanim]

I like Kendricks because he's a high motor guy, and, most importantly (and this is why I think the Steelers like him), he makes splash plays. In that he reminds me of Woodley...he may disappear at times, but when he shows up, he shows up in a big way. Oh...and he's FAST. He can cover RB's and TE's...

In his career, he had 36.5 TFL, including 13.5 sacks, a FF, seven fumble recoveries, 4 picks (including a pick six), 5 pass breakups and even a blocked punt. Kid's a playmaker...

I did read somewhere that the Falcons covet him...and they pick exactly ONE pick ahead of us tonight.

[SteelMember]

The way things are going :wink02:... Brandon Thompson

[SteelMember]

That is very true, but I think they will go OT if a good one is there. Sam Baker isn't cutting it.

[Texasteel]

Why don't you like Kendricks? Who do you like at ILB?

I like James-Michael Johnson, I have early and will stick with him. I feel that if a player like Kelechi Osemele that can play both RT and RG is there he could be our pick.

[st33lersguy]

If Ta'amu is available they must take him

[Steelers33]

devon still

[ALLD]

We should load up both lines Friday and find some camp bodies after the 4th round.

[7willBheaven]

devon still

Why? They don't need another high round DE pick...later rounds i wouldnt have a problem with.

[86WARD]

Mike Adams it is...nice...

[ALLD]

I say NT, ILB or DE next. Don't forget a kicker.

[st33lersguy]

Did they not learn their lesson from the Sansmokio fiasco?

[suitanim]

I'm okay with him late second. When he was on, he was super solid. The Steelers vetted him...I'm guessing he competes with Colon at RT.

[Count Steeler]

Did they not learn their lesson from the Sansmokio fiasco?

They probably did. They think they can handle him.
