Who are your “Top 17” players?

[polamalubeast]

You don't put RB on this list?

If he is available,I would happy with a WR as Tee Higgins.

That’s weird.

I just didn't understand, it's fine!

I have the feeling that the steelers will take a RB(Jonathan Taylor)...Art Rooney II had said after the season that the steelers need to be better to run the football,Tomlin said the same thing this week.We will see.

[Mojouw]

Offense: Mims/Higgins/Shenault

Defense: Baun/McKInney/Delpit

That being said, I would be shocked if any of those guys are left.

So I am now hoping for either Jordan Elliot or Blacklock for the DLine or the best OL prospect left on the board.

Basically, I want them to draft something sexy that will be fun to watch highlights of for a few days. But I think they should draft someone in the trenches.

[DesertSteel]

Jonathan Taylor will be the pick.

[polamalubeast]

What are the chances that the steelers take a player we have never heard of at 49? (Like Dionte Johnson last year)

[Method28]

I would love one of these guys:

Mims


Thank you,

I don't think we need a rb with our first pick. But i do not trust Conner for well documented reasons of not being able to stay healthy. For me that is a real concern . I know everyone wants to quote ownership as "needing to / wanting to run the ball better". That could mean a lot of things . I know if you are not able to pass the ball , its gonna be a lot tougher to run it . I'm leaning toward OL or WR . I would like someone to groom into Hargrave's shoes too .

Hoping for a run on RBs before pick 49 and that a good OL prospect is available. Cleveland and Cushenberry are 99% likely to not be there but hopefully the next tier of OL will be there.

Preferably I want OL or WR to address the offense. However, the more I think about it the less I am opposed to safety in round 2. I know they spent a round 1 pick on Minkah but they really don't have much after that. I don't trust Edmunds and after Edmunds even there's quite the dropoff

Same for me for the safety...The defense was just brutal in the first 2 games last year with Kelly who is not a NFL caliber safety and I don't know if the steelers have a nfl caliber safety after the first 2...The 3rd safety don't need to be great but at least not a player who would put by himself the entire defense not because this player is so bad like Kelly in the first 2 games in 2019...I don't know if we can have a good safety at 102 too.

[Mojouw]

Delpit.

[polamalubeast]

Unlikely that Tee Higgins will be a steelers….

[Method28]

Tee Higgins just reminds me of Limas Sweed for some reason. Maybe its the same build same qualities coming out of college?

Pick 49 will be a TE :chuckle:

[polamalubeast]

Another indication that the steelers may want an RB .... Last year when Le'Veon Bell was on the trade block, there were rumors that the steelers were interested.

I'm not saying that's what I would do, but I expect a RB and we have to prepare for that.

[RunNGun]

I'd love it if Mims fell to us. Like I've mentioned before, as well as others, the offense is lacking a deep threat. Mims could be that guy that benefits the whole offense. I'm really leaning towards WR or RB with pick 49.

I'd actually trade Juju to move up to take Mims and then take either Taylor, Dobbins, or Akers with pick 49, assuming we could get a 2nd rd pick straight up with Juju.

Mims would be a great pick!

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Mims would be a great pick! Art 2 said he wants more play makers on offense and think RB or WR will be the pick.
