JollyRobs mock draft

[JollyRob68]

1.Hightower ILB Alabama
2.Brandon Brooks OG Miami Ohio
3. Derek Wolfe DE Cincy
4. Trent Robinson Mich ST
5.Delvin Johnson NT Marshall
6. Tom Compton South Dakota/Lucas Nix Pitt OT
7.Gerrell Robinson Arizona st /Ty Hilton FL International WR
7a. Scott Wedige OC/OC NIU
7b. Darius Fleming ND / Shea Mccellin Boise OLB
7c. Randy Bullock AtM Kicker/Jorden Jefferson/Kellen Moore QB

What do you think. I selected a few guys that Colbert & Tomlin visited with or brought in for visits so far. As well as some that Interviewed with a Steelers site and I like them.

One thing I forgot was a BAckup QB. I'd give in place of a Kicker. Kellen Moore or Jorden Jefferson

to start i don't like hightower in the 1st ...
2nd i think they def go guard 2nd brooks maybe a reach in the second but if you like him, which seems like they do cause they watched him at the pro day , then you take him
3rd... i know they brought wolfe in for a interview and they usually always pick guys they bring in, but i hope they don't go DE here ...it's not a need or anything... unless they plan on moving hood to NT
4th ... i like trent robinson ...think he could be a good safety ...my thing is he's just a little small though

don't know much about them other guys but i would love if that kicker falls to us as a comp pick

I don't understand what there is not to like about Hightower. He is a pretty perfect match in our system, he fills a glaring need and the value at 24 is right around right.

Want nothing to do with Jefferson in any round! He has no chance in hell of wearing a Steeler uniform...

seeing more and more hightower/brooks 1-2...ill take credit for that lol

It was reported that Colbert & Tomlin were all over him. Thats why I selected him there plus we need depth/future FS.

I actually like him as a replacement for Harrison after next year. But would love him as our ILB.
I also think Mortty Ivy has a shot to win that spot.
Bleed black and gold Suggested we sign RFA Larry Grant from San Fran. He has a 7th round tender and filled in for Willis against us and played well. He's a former Ohio St guy.

Kellen Moore would be the perfect career backup. He's accurate,gets the ball out quick and will be given time to grow & get stronger.

I don't like hightower , because the NFL is changing, yes he a huge ILB a beast at stopping the run... but what about pass coverage?? ...and also i mean give Sylvester a chance , He might do good and then you don't need a ILB and can use that pick on a weapon for Ben or depth at some other position...take a LB later in the draft like Nigel Bradham or James Michal-Johnson, that will give depth and competition for Sylvester ...

Our offense has the ability to be very very potent ...just missing maybe another weapon at say the TE position that can create major mismatches ...

Just my 2 cents though
