Yeah also depends on the team staying healthy. If Ben is out I don't expect much from Landry Jones. Also Steelers lose to a bad mediocre teams every year. Also I hope they have a game plan for the Jaguars, Tom Coughlin really knows how to out play the Steelers over the years.

Not surprised....dude was done.

Finally, draft week is here. Gettleman better do the right thing and get us Eli's successor. I don't want to hear about Saquon Barkley.

Maybe trying to get Dez Bryant? Bryant wants to stay in the NFC East.

Giants have many holes to fill elsewhere and not a lot of cap space. Dez isn't the player he used to be and we don't need another diva wideout. I could see him going to Washington. Considering Dan Snyder's history, he'd make a bonehead move like that.

He's not there yet IMO. Would keep Dobbs, get rid of Jones, draft another QB.

I'm not sold on Dobbs thus far. I have to see some improvement thus preseason. He has a way to go. Landry has a stronger arm and can get the ball downfield. The problem is

it's to the other team too often.

IMO Dobbs needs to get more reps than Jones in the preseason because we already know what Jones can do.

If Dobbs isn't progressing, it may be time for PIT to look at a potential backup/successor in 2019.

Just 2 more days to the draft

I agree with that

Baker Mayfield drafted No. 1 overall by Browns

Steelers pick Terrell Edmunds

Didn't know anything about this guy but his brother drafted earlier appeared to be a stud

in college. The Steelers need to be right on this guy. The draft doesn't end with round 1 though.

Some people are saying this guy could have been had in the 2nd or 3rd round.

Was just about to ask you your thoughts on him

One of my Panthers friends text me and laughed at the Browns taking Mayfield over Barkley and said Mayfield wasn't that special. I told him he's good when he's hot but when he's not he's Mark Sanchez. I'm glad they passed on Barkley and Nick Chubb although I think the corner Ward they took at 4 is solid. [Edited 4/26/18 19:11pm]

Unless he's Drew Brees or Russell Wilson, the Browns just whiffed again on an undersized signal-caller.

IMO, "solid" doesn't justify a 4 pick. I know CLE feels they have their star edge rusher but they could have used Chubb more, especially when there's value for CBs in later rounds. And that offense needs a dynamic playmaker to take eyes off of whoever was going to play QB.

Sashi Brown gave them a GOLDEN opportunity to have the best draft they ever had. I hope I'm wrong, because I want the Browns to be relevant, but I believe the GM (who I really liked) just wanted to prove he was smarter than everyone else and set a bad franchise back again.

Bengals drafted

NFL Draft picks: Round 1 results

Dumb, dumb, dumb...Giants had the perfect opportunity to set themselves up for the next 10 years post-Eli. All those Giants fans who were cheering last night will be crying three years from now when Eli's gone with no top-flight QB in his place.

Well if the Giants weren't gonna take a franchise qb with the second pick Saquon Barkley is one

hell of a consolation prize. Dave Gettlemen appears to want to win now especially after the Eagles won it all last season.

KPowers what do you think about the Steelers drafting Mason Rudolph?

He played high school football in my backyard at Northwestern High School

in Rock Hill SC

Yeah saw some footage on youtube, could be the number 2 QB. Weird Steelers listed him as 5'11 now they have him at 6'5. Your thoughts on all draft picks.
