Colbert on Ben, the NFL Draft & more

[BlackAndGold]

On what the plan is for the team's second round pick since the Steelers don't have a first-round pick:
"We do have a first-round pick. That is Minkah Fitzpatrick. We can't be more excited about not only having Minkah in the fold from last year, but as we move forward into this draft because of the unknown issues we are going to be dealing with, we feel even more comfortable having made that trade than had we not.

On the addition of Derek Watt and what the plans are at wide receiver:

"When we picked up Derek Watt we understood what Derek's role would be as a fullback, as an H-back. The thing that really intrigued us with Derek was his production on special teams. He was one of the leading tacklers in the league in special teams and he was a Pro Bowl special teams player. We are excited about having that.

"With the receiver position we are always looking to add more players. At both running back and receiver we are looking to add a healthy James Conner and healthy JuJu Smith-Schuster. When they are both healthy, they are both Pro Bowl level players.

Colbert also talks about the left guard and right tackle competition, and his thought on a 17 game season. Read the rest by clicking the link in the tweet or here: https://www.steelers.com/news/colber...nfl-draft-more
