OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: Steelers need a new ball thrower for the handball game thingy

[wheelz87]

I mean, the teams at the top of the draft didn't really have a huge need for a QB and the best QBs in this draft are late 1st/early 2nd round caliber.

There shouldn't have been a QB taken yet.

Carolina, Atlanta need ones, no?

 

[ChaosAgent]

They got a 3rd rounder in addition to 32 and 34.

I think it was next year.

Value seems really, really off to move up 20 spots in the first round. That's the kind of trade that should cost a future first or at least the Vikes should have been able to keep their second.

They have calculators for this stuff; I'm almost certain the Vikings just screwed this up.

 

[Arkadiusz]

Yep you're right, Eagles picked Davis according to my group chat.

Odd, I thought they moved up to get a WR here, with the massive run on WRs that is happening right now.

As long as Baltimore didn't get him....

 

[Coastal Kev]

Even the Lions think these QBs are trash....which they are

I wouldn't look to the Lions for wisdom.

Did they see that kids leg snap? The only thing that makes him special is his freakish speed. An injury as severe as that........... if he loose just a small %, he's no longer special.

Carolina, Atlanta need ones, no?

It sounds like Carolina is going to trade for Baker (who's better than any of the QBs in this draft) and Atlanta has Mariota. I think taking any QB in this draft with their picks would have been a huge reach.

These QB prospects shouldn't be going above pick 20.

Yeah it seems like a bad return for the Vikings, I was just saying they also got a 3rd rounder.

It's tough to really gauge draft pick values in a draft like this though, this draft seems fairly weak.

Yahoo is way ahead of tv

Can’t believe the chosen one fell this far

No they shouldn’t. Every year though some qb gets overhyped. Somebody is THE GUY. Not the case this year. Ugh. And we’re gonna be the dummies.

 

[wheelz87]

Man Hamilton has fallen. Someone will get a good one there.
Yep. Of course bmore

 

[xlm34]

Goddamn. Ravens always seem to have an amazing draft. Hamilton is going to be so good.

 

[Andy99]

Ravens pick right…you take the best player available who has fallen whether you have starters already at that position…

 

[Empoleon8771]

You can take the Redskins out of their name, but you can't take the Redskins out of their operation.

 

[Pengwins]

Damn I want of the Steelers to get Kyle Hamilton

 

[Pengwins]

Ravens pick right…you take the best player available who has fallen whether you have starters already at that position…

At least the Eagles screwed the ravens

 

[wheelz87]

Hollywood brown worth the 23rd overall pick whattt

 

[wheelz87]

All these wideouts going. I’d love to get one. Diontae so underwhelming at times and Claypool…. I’d love Watson.

 

[Andy99]

Hollywood brown worth the 23rd overall pick whattt

Balt also gave up the #100 pick but yeah, we could have gotten a first for DJ lol

 

[ChaosAgent]

Is Hollywood Brown that good???????

 

[Andy99]

Is Hollywood Brown that good???????

No but he caught 91 balls last season…most productive receiver for Balt outside of. Andrews

 

[Empoleon8771]

AJ Brown to Philly, and I think that locks the Steelers into either Pickett or Willis.

I'm thinking Pickett goes to New Orleans and Willis goes to Pittsburgh.

Balt also gave up the #100 pick but yeah, we could have gotten a first for DJ lol

I’m dumbfounded here. Larceny by Baltimore.

 

[Coastal Kev]

I wanted Datson...... Give me KP or give me some peaches

 

[dogthateats]

This dude is dapper

 

[xlm34]

lol I can’t believe the Cardinals traded a first for Hollywood Brown. They could have given a little more and traded for Aj Brown.
