Brooks runs a 4.64 40. Seems more like a project? But then there’s not a lot that isn’t a project at this point...right?

So a guy that can play all over the place? That's pretty much what Brooks did in college so maybe that's their thing then...
Benito Jones could be there as the 7th round pick.
I would have preferred Mettelus at Safety, but maybe the Steelers are looking for a 220 lb slower safety with limited range in coverage.
For round 7.
Alex Taylor, OT, South Carolina State
Raequan Williams, DT, Michigan State
Dane Jackson, CB, Pittsburgh
AJ Green, CB, Oklahoma State
1. Graham Barton, C, Duke 2. Ricky Pearsall, WR, Florida 3. Maason Smith, DT, LSU 3. Max Melton, CB, Rutgers 4. Blake Fisher, OT, Notre Dame 6. Tommy Eichenberg, ILB, Ohio State 6. MJ Devonshire, CB, Pittsburgh
Only 5 small school players taken in the 6th-Round. Usually a place where a lot of those players go.
Last year it was 33 non-combine invites that were drafted. Not sure what it is this year but seems like the current situation is hurting those small school guys...maybe a lot of non-drafted free agent potential out there.

Titans take Hawai'i QB Cole McDonald. He's got that career backup name to him...lol.
7 players on defense on 7 picks….And they said on TV that this is the first time ever it happen!
They do have several really good players on offense. But that's just so darn odd.
Cool to know it was the first time.

What a shocker! A R7 TE! They will pick Moss if they keep to the Steeler TE drafting tradition.
carlos davis DT nebraska, the steelers mr. irrelevant
Into the Comp picks of the 7th Round...
Tomlin’s gonna boot that pup when he’s done...lol
From Vrabels guy pooping in the background to Belichicks Dog to BOBs hands in the air to Tomlin here...I loved this draft set up!!
I’m really rooting for Banner. Really began to like him as a person as well as a player.
He's a funny follow on Twitter.

Yeah, I think if Banner shows well for another season in B&G, there is a chance that the Steelers give him a contract to be the future RT and don't give Feiler a contract because Dotson is the future LG on a lower value contract for a few years. When Villanueva and Feiler are up the O line in a year or 2 could be :
LT- Okorafor
LG-Dotson
C-Pouncey
RG-DeCastro
RT-Banner
The packers have had a awful draft...A 3rd round pick on a full back in 2020...C'mon
The 6 picks for the 2018 chiefs was also all on defense.
I think Pouncey will be gone in two...
Array title="Craic has a reputation beyond repute">
Only if Ben is. I recall Pouncey saying he's there until Ben leaves.
Me too. His play will likely be sliding and seems like injuries pile up on him. Steelers will look at a legit C/G in the draft next year I think.
