Coach's draft/offseason thoughts (look at me..look at me)

The Steelers optioned Bud. They were on the fence about him. He had a career year last year and will get paid. But it is definitely buyer beware there. I would not say he is a bust. Nor would I say that Edmund's is a bust. And I could even live with solid player in speaking of Dupree. But I'm looking for solid players in round two. The fact they are where they are with Dupree looking at giving him a contract, tagging him and letting him hit UFA after next year really says a lot. I'm not saying Burns couldn't possibly resurrect his career elsewhere. I'm saying he is a failed draft pick for the Pittsburgh Steelers. He busted for them.

You can say with the Steelers they usually pick at the bottom of one. Not much difference than saying round 2, And picking at the bottom of one you are lucky for a solid player. As it is said those stars usually drop off after the 15 to 20 range. Usually higher than what the Steelers pick.

I think Burns isn't a talent issue it is a head issue. So yeah he didn't work out for the Steelers they probably wanted Coolie's boy more and picked Burns as a consolation prize/pick.
 
False. My drafts are often better than the Steelers, the facts are many here can't deal with it.

Anyone who studies the draft uses what is available to them.

Let’s make this simple. Prove it. Show us the facts. Specifically.

We already know the answer. You won’t, you can’t, and there is nothing “to deal with”.

The problem with “Anyone who studies the draft uses what is available to them.”, is that you don’t study. Watching YouTube clips and reading Walter Football entries isn’t studying, it’s just you looking at another person’s opinion and formulating and calling it your own. In other words it’s plagiarism.

Dumb ***.
