Did anybody see the Steelers tonight?
Lordy be they are stocked with talent.
They pick in the bottom of the first round but yet they come up with gems.
Can we lure their GM?

I want a GM that can do a good job at picking up at the top and bottom of the rounds. I think we need to be realistic on who could we get for GM and FO.

Just so every one knows. Pittsburg does not pick Olinemen in the early rounds. They never pick an offensive lineman, before the third round.

They do something with their linemen that we do not: COACH THEM.

Look, I've admired Buges for decades. But the fact is that our line in recent years has revealed both a lack of talent and a lack of coaching.

Good call. And their entire team for that matter. They could take most of our players and turn them into serious ballers. They absorb players into their system and get max production. Kind of how the Skins did in the 80s. When players left the Skins, they were never the same.

Yeah, that was the one thing that jumped out at me last night when they were showing the Steelers last 10 or so first round picks: no O-linemen. I was worried that Vinny was watching the game going "See, see! I knew I didn't need to draft linemen!"

I thought Pittsburgh didn't have a good offensive line?

They really dont but because they don't have BUM ASS JC, they actually can make plays downfield and put up pts.

Yeah , but Vinny never picks Oline altogether. They pick one to three every draft. There line is constnatly getting better, they are young and are very good run blockers.

Steeler Guards Chris Kemoeatu and Trial Essex had a monster game. Along with big run blocking TE's Heath Miller and Matt Spaeth, they were putting on a run clinic 10 yards at a time last night. On a couple of those cool counter plays, they looked like the Redskins of old, but with a new wrinkle. A guard pulling followed by a big TE, instead of the redskins counter trey of a G and T.
RT Willie Colon and LT Max Starks also looked strong.
With big and young RB Rashard Mendenhall running hard.
I laughed hard when old WR Hines Ward hurdled Champ Bailey's tackle attempt and scored a TD. Champ was humiliated.
Steelers are peaking and looking like the strongest team at the moment.
