Steelers fans weren’t used …

Maybe Bill Belichick has a conscience after all. Perhaps he feels guilty about stealing the Steelers’ signals during the 2004 AFC Championship Game at Heinz Field. How else can you explain the Patriots’ willingness to send the Steelers a third-round draft pick for Emmanuel Sanders? Unless the devious Patriots laced Sanders’ drinking water with Randy …

It’s been established in this space that if Tennessee wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson is available, the Pittsburgh Steelers should select him with the No. 17 pick in the 2013 NFL Draft. But what if Patterson is gone by the time the Steelers pick? What if they pick an outside linebacker or a running back instead? …

If the Pittsburgh Steelers don’t take a wide receiver in the 2013 NFL Draft, Mike Tomlin and Kevin Colbert should demoted to hot dog vendors at Heinz Field.

Since Kevin Colbert became the Pittsburgh Steelers’ director of player personnel in 2000, they have not missed on a first-round draft pick, although it’s too early to tell on Cameron Heyward and David DeCastro. The 2013 NFL draft is no time for the Steelers to snap that first-round streak. Coming off an 8-8 season, the …

To the casual fan, it might not seem like a big deal that the Pittsburgh Steelers have been awarded a compensatory sixth-round pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, as Pro Football Talk reports. However, in analyzing the round-by-round value of the last 12 Steelers drafts, we were reminded that Antonio Brown and Chris Kemoeatu were …

At the risk of being sacrilegious, let’s relate the biggest news story in the world this week to the Pittsburgh Steelers. If you’re a devout Catholic, reader discretion is advised.

Move over, running back and wide receiver. Make room for outside linebacker on the list of Pittsburgh Steelers’ urgent draft needs.
