The biggest part of draft prep is deciding on the team's needs. What positions need a brand new starter and which ones can get by with no help or just a developmental player. All teams claim they draft best player available, but that's bullshit. Funny how that best player seems to also fit a need.
OL is the hot topic. Steeler fans are used to seeing a good OL that can run the ball. Last year was so bad that it may have given some fans PTSD with regard to the OL.
So how much work do you think the OL needs?
Insurance Fire. Burn it all down. Chukes, Banner and Finney suck. Decastro looks beat. They need 2 OTs and a C in this draft or the season is lost.
Fixer Upper. Chukes or Banner are OK but not both. OL can be good enough only if they draft 1 new starter.
Needs TLC. With a better scheme, the OL as is might play well enough to win but upgrade with a high pick is advisable.
Spring Cleaning. A new scheme will have this OL playing above the line. Upgrade if there's a value but you can wait until later rounds. Draft RB and other needs first.
