    Meetings and dinners are how I construct my mock draft every year...

    I really feel this is the year they go after their QB. Thing is, bet Rudolph gets picked in the early twenties

    The ONLY thing that worries me about picking Rudolph is that I have read a few reports that talk extensively about how he doesn't play well from a muddled pocket and doesn't do much when the play breaks down.

    One even makes comparisons to Palmer and Flacco.

    That paints a picture of year in and year out debates about "elite" and going 10-6...I mean it isn't terrible but it isn't great either.

    Colbert and Tomlin go Rudolph in the first this year and get it wrong, it is all of their jobs...

    It’s not even that I like/dislike want/don’t want Rudolph.

    My gut just keeps telling me that he’s the pick...

    I can see that. I really have no feelings one way or the other on the matter at this point. I may decide to develop one at some point...

    I do think that Baker Mayfield and Mason Rudolph are the 2 most variable of the big name prospects this year. High ceilings but franchise humbling floors.

    I feel he is the pick but again he goes early twenties. Will be a qb run in the first 10 picks. Later another team will realize he is still around and take him.

    Re: The Draft!

    Darius Leonard, ILB, South Carolina St. already has TWELVE meetings set up between now and the draft.

    Subtext:
    If anyone thinks he’ll slip to our R3 pick, I’ll give you twelve reasons why he won’t be there.

    He certainly won't go in the first round. I could see needing to take him in the second round.

    I suspect that the internet will be awash with folks screaming "REACH" after every Steelers pick in the first 3 rounds. These folks will ignore all arguments of fit versus need. Some will also even ignore the actual evaluation of the player and just sputter on and on about how so and so was only ranked such and such on their big board.

    Ahhhhh...it is going to be so much fun.

    So far I haven't heard anyone saying "Deep draft! Deep draft! This is the deepest draft in years!" like they do literally every offseason.

    Is this really a regular year, or are those people just asleep at the switch with their yelling?

    The best was when the Steelers drafted Le’Veon Bell (instead of Eddie Lacy).

    I remember Hodge didn't like the pick. Think he wanted Lacy!

    do you remember all the board "experts" either saying we should have taken Lacy and the others saying we reached and should have taken Bell in Round 3 instead?

    The preseason was a nightmare, because Bell was hurt/didn’t play well... and Lacy was looking good.

    Some of the garbage people were saying about the organization and Bell is burned into my memory. Some of those Isaac Redman and Jonathan Dwyer are as good or better than Bell discussions were the stuff of legend.

    All of these years later, and Scrotis still hasn’t fulfilled that promise to me.

    jokes aside, I think the suddeness and glide thing becoming a meme has really left Redman forgotten in Pittsburgh. He was one of the best short yardage AND pass blocking backs in the entire NFL for a couple years until his stinger his final season made him suck and retire. And that was back when the Oline sucked. He'd be more automatic than an extra point behind our current Oline on 3rd and 1
