So true......but can you imagine my new favorite player George Kittle as a Steeler? And drafted in the fifth round. That’s a football dream.
Of course they would actually have to use him!
Ok so what/who do we draft?

The Steelers don't have a 1st round pick and will have a late 3rd comp pick. They aren't getting Etienne or Taylor mid 2nd round.
They went all in on this season probably to keep Tomlin's "I never had a losing season" streak alive and now they will pay for it come April. They don't have the picks to make this team much better. Vannett is now a UFA and the Steelers are out a 5th round pick. He didn't do much anyway.

That was a terrible trade for Vannett. He was absolutely worthless and sounds like a huge tool.
LT or WR.......which ever is the BPA at those positions when they pick.
We draft a new head coach, the Tomlin experiment is over. Thanks Mike. Hope you have great life.

Trade Tomlin to Washington and suddenly you have a ton of draft capital, and maybe even Tua

A #1 WR and a #1 RB for starters would be nice. But I think we are going to be seeing the beginning of a rebuilding stage. This is going to be a long decade for the Steelers and us fans. A new HC and OC is much needed in the very near future as well. The offense needing upgraded as well especially on the line starting with the C and both OT's. But this is nothing you all already know.

If the Steelers traded Tomlin to Washington and then took Tua with the second overall pick I'd be pissed.
Looks like the Redskins are ready to sign Ron Rivera.

A NT.. Big Snack Joel Steed type of beast. They haven't had anyone on that level or durable enough since them.

I agree, I know we went light and speedy, but we soft up the middle
Steelers got the outside pass rush back with TJ but forgot teams still run the ball, they get gashed by the physical teams, who can pound it up the gut, gotta do something.
and I'm starting a new rumor
Tomlin to the Cowboys!
Guys that are that big and that athletic are few and very far in between.

This^^^^** and NTs are not three down players anymore in this league. For all the bitching here about 2DL, this defense looked pretty good all year for the most part.

But we don't know how to use TEs, so I'm sticking to my first priorities
We need a #1WR and #1 RB, in no particular order, those should be our first choices

Those two things alone with Ben back we are in the playoffs.
Except when we played good teams, NE, Seattle, SF all put up 400 yards on us, and Baltimore ran all over us today. You don't need a Casey Hampton, just use 3 Dlinenmen vs great running teams, it's not that difficult, well obviously it is.

I'd build this team back into a power running team. Most of the league is pass happy with lighter faster defenses to cover all the pass happy ****.
what you're seeing the rats do is just what we used to do. Well minus the running qb part to that extent.

Doesn't matter with this coaching staff. Bunch of ******* idiots riding a tradition down to Bungle land. A guy like Tomlin does not surround himself with the smartest/best people available because he will be exposed. Teams are not lining up to hire Tomlin hires, are they?
This literally happened. When they had them trapped on their goalline onnfirst down they went with Barron. I don't know what happened on second but Vince was on third. He blitzed but was a hair slow. Why the **** is your run stuffer out on first down.
It took Tomlin like 8 years to get the defense decent, you think he’s going to just be able to change the whole offense now??? That’s rich.
