Steelers found their next Hilton. There are actually a lot of pieces here that are long termers. Sans Pickens and Harris, I think the core is here. We have young talented guys at TE, C, RG, RDE, MLB, CB, and probably at least one T. I expect Muth, Frazier, McCormick, Benton, P. Wilson, Porter, Austin (returner), and Fautanu to all make a Pro Bowl at some point and many of them to be there annually.

Tbh I thought Frazier was overrated at the draft because he was a local guy and Steelers fans thought he was great just because of that, but the dude is legitimately a monster center. He's going to be their new Pouncey, absolutely monster of a hit with that pick.

Hopefully Jones, Fautanu and McCormick end up being good as well. McCormick and Jones have mediocre PFF scores but I don't think most people expected McCormick to start this year.

I actually think Frazier now is better than Pouncey was as a rookie. I think Frazier is a top 3 center in the league next year. Give this dude one offseason to get his body sorted out to be a pro lineman, and if he can stay healthy, this is how the top 5 centers is going to look for a while.

I think Pouncey was one of the most overrated C's of all time.

Yeah, Frazier is also coming off of a broken leg at the end of last season/before the draft. He's only going to get better. Dude is a f***ing beast.
 
Frazier is very good. I don’t think he has Pouncey’s athleticism which probably keeps his ceiling below Pouncey but he should be a good starting C in the league for a long time.

There are a handful of traits that I look for in a C prospect that I have found have sort of been predictors of success more often than not regardless of actually height or weight of a prospect. 1. Accomplished wrestling background. 2. Big hands. 3. 32"+ arm length. If a guy has those 3 things, going for him he will be a top C. All the top C's right now have the exact same background growing up.
 
I'm going to see what next season brings for Frazier before getting super excited about his career but, right now, as someone who was high on what they were reading about the kid, he's been more than advertised. His lateral movement/speed/reach weaknesses have barely shown up, his technique/desire/strength has been exactly as advertised.

The omens are definitely poor. But honestly, I'm excited for that. I've wanted to see this team face something scary to see what they're really made of for so long and here we are. Bring it on.

Mahomes may have gotten injured against the Browns. It’s kind of unclear right now whether he’s doing his annual Willy Wonka impression or if he’s actually hurt.
 
Dolphins lose. If the Colts lose, the Steelers clinch a playoff spot.

Of course they can clinch by beating the Eagles too.
 
I don’t get why we constantly force that toss play to Najee …almost never works lol

And a deep ball with slow Jefferson triple covered…don’t get that either lol
 
Our offense and defense aren’t as good as the Eagles’…going to have make some big plays for points to win this…
