Official 2011 Steeler draft discussion

Sands to me is intriguing .. he has some real good tape .. good range and he is definitely a wirey (sp?) dude ..

there always seems to be a sketchy projection with "big safeties" .. i like him, but still have my questions ..

what specifically do you not like about him?

dang, i just saw that about floyd .. must have come out today ..

I like Sands. Good hands,big hitter and fast. Plus love his height.

What about JAmie Harper in the 4th as a replacement for Mewelde Moore?

im a big guy on mock drafts but have not gotten to Pitt's pick yet. All im really thinking is OT or CB. Of the top available grades at CB, what player is seen as the best fit out of Jimmy Smith, Brandon Harris, and Aaron Williams.

Dwyer should fit that role. ideally we need to trade our later picks to move up in the first round and even the 2nd

Also wouldn't mind picking up Bruce miller DE from UCF in the later rounds and what do you guys think about buster skrine CB out of Chattanooga, as a sleeper like 4 or 5 round. runs his 40 in the low 4.2s. And a good cover guy

**emansanders88** · 02-05-2011, 01:45 PM

What about a second round guy like Orlando Franklin, G from Miami. 6'7" 320lbs, great run blocker, played a game last season at LT fairly well.

After watching the Super Bowl we need CB,DB and D lineman.

**Rampage** · 02-07-2011, 03:41 PM

As much as I would like for this team to get Mike Pouncey, I don't think it is going to happen.

If a quality corner or defensive lineman drops to 31, I think that's where they are going to go. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised to see this team move up if they thought that a really good corner could be grabbed.
