He will probably get 3 of these and then they will give DPOY to a Corner with similar numbers to another corner.

I very much recall the so-called "experts" second-guessing the pick. "He's only had one good year in college."

30. T.J. Watt, OLB Wisconsin — Pittsburgh Steelers
Grade: B

Analysis: The Steelers are just going to keep drafting these first-round edge rushers until they find a good one. Watt isn’t the most explosive athlete, but all he did was produce at Wisconsin.

Pittsburgh Steelers

Pittsburgh’s big need in the draft was getting an outside linebacker, and that’s what they got in T.J. Watt of Wisconsin. He’s a solid outside pass rusher who can come up and stop the run. With James Harrison nearing retirement, Watt can be his understudy while also stealing some snaps on run downs.

Grade: B-

God, I so wish the Steelers had a drafting genius like the guy running the Chargers' 2017 draft.

Los Angeles Chargers

When the Chargers took wide receiver Mike Williams in the first round, I thought it was early for the Clemson wide receiver, But given the top-10 run at the position, the NFL seemed to love receivers high more than those who cover the draft. If getting Williams was early, the Chargers stole guard Forrest Lamp with the 38th pick. He’s a great player and should get into the starting lineup immediately.

Grade: B

Picking 23 spots earlier, Mike Williams and Forrest Gump, ehh, Lamp? Awesome. So freaking much better than TJ Watt and Juju Smith-Schuster.

It doesn't surprise me about TJ WATT. He is the best defensive player in the league right now. He was also the BEST defensive player in the league last year but our owner doesn't get rub-n-tugs with the rog.





Salute the nation

Better than your opponents being 3-6 after your first 3 weeks!

Goes to show at least that the Steelers aren't an 0-3 team like last year.
