Here's a link to NFL.com's 2016 Draft Tracker. It shows all players picked and the pool of players yet to be picked with ratings for each player.
It helps the draft experience keeping this link as one of your open windows. Enjoy!

I'm currently sitting in flag and majorette tryouts for my high school band instead of sitting at home and drinking beer to get ready for the draft. Try to contain your jealousy of me, folks. Lol

Re: NFL Draft Day 2016 thread
I've been pushing for a CB to be taken high in the draft for years but I gotta say, I'm just not feeling any of these CBs that should be available when it's our pick in round 1.

Thanks Ed, maybe you should try watching a game or two so you can see that number of sacks =/= consistent pressure. Not that we DON'T need a DB or two, but to me this looks like more of the smug "Avoid a Defensive Tackle at All Costs - LOOK HOW SMART I AM" schtick.

I agree. Odds are pretty long that Alexander is available, and he's the only one I would really want over a stud DT like Billings or Butler. Jackson maybe. I really hope we don't take Apple.
Round 2 - Xavien Howard. That's the guy I'm hoping for, who could really help us for a much more reasonable price.

I picked Marcus Peters in last year's Steelers Universe mock draft contest and I'm still bummed that he didn't last until it was our turn...:mad:

Re: NFL Draft Day 2016 thread
Will Goodell continue his long-standing tradition of hiding behind military members at the podium in an attempt to shield himself from the cascade of boos?
The world awaits with breathless anticipation...

It will be Apple if he's there.

what Ed didnt tell you was 22 of those sacks ( that got us to 3rd ) came in 4 games that where blowouts , a dozen in 2 games vs the Browns

Re: NFL Draft Day 2016 thread
It'll be interesting where the Chargers go, last night heard they'll go Ronnie Stanley, now it may be Buckner or Ramsey.

They should take Ramsey since they need to replace Weddle. I just hope that Ramsey doesn't fall to the Ravens.

Goodell boos coming. Always the best part.

Re: NFL Draft Day 2016 thread
Ramsey won't get passed the Jags, so I don't worry about Baltimore getting him, can see them getting Tunsil though.
