What Im jealous of, of playoff teams

[cbrunn]

Do they still have Ryan Lee too ??? ... he could make a good Backup if anything

[Real Deal Steel]

Adams-- Beachum-- Pouncey-- DeCastro-- Gilbert = Money if they can stay together and gel we will be in the top 5 in passing and rushing

IF.......we get the right O-line coach.

[Crash]

Get this through your heads.

The Steelers will NEVER, repeat NEVER, have a top 5 passing team.

The front office simply won't allow it.

This is the year to get the OT or OG in the 1st.

We got the OG in the first last year. It's been 5 years now since we've taken a non-lineman in the first round, and now our skill positions are lacking. We can get good value on the line later in the draft; heck Mike Webster was a 5th round selection.

Especially considering they have zero RBs under contract, one of their best WRs is likely to leave in FA and the starting TE will miss the beginning of the season, not to mention the fact that the D is a shell of its former self.

There are far more urgent needs than spending a 5th consecutive #1 pick (and 7th high round pick) on the line.

Beachum SHOULD NOT be a starter if the Steelers are really serious about protecting Ben. He's a career backup at best.

"But he did okay in the last few games!!!!!!"

Yeah, and Jonathan Scott did okay in 2010. How'd he do in 2011?

I really hope they dont blow another first round pick on the line. Get a play maker on defense or offense the line is what it is... they cant stay healthy

Beachum to me could be an awesome swing man. He can back up 4 spots.

But our staff has to realize that, and not make him be something he isn't.

You really think their going to use another first round pick on the O-line? I don't.

I think their going to go pass rushing LB or DT with the first pick.

I think if warmack or an OT drop they pick them up...

I really like Ogletree. Fast, big, ILB slash OLB..
