I don't know if the Max pick will work out or not.  However, with 2 QB's and 6 O-Linemen drafted before the Steelers choice, wouldn't a top 13 pick from the field be a better option than the 7th best O-Lineman?

Well, I think that's what they were trying to do when they were on the phone with Makai Lemon.

I also thought that Omar Cooper, KC Concepcion or Dillon Thieneman would've all been strong picks for where they were once Lemon was scooped by the Eagles.

The rationale I apply to passing on Cooper and Concepcion is that maybe they had a much closer grade on Bernard being closer to them in talent than they did on the OTs after Iheanachor and Lomu, and saw that as the preferred value to grab.

steelers are 8-0. What position would they be looking forward. the steelers are 0-8. what players are they looking to sell?

If they're 8-0, I think they'd probably still want a faster deep safety as that's still a big need in my opinion.

If they're 0-8, maybe they move one of the 2023 draft picks they feel they won't be able to sign like Jones, Benton, Washington or Herbig (probably not Herbig, and I don't think there's any chance they ever move Porter).

That's all we've got time for today! Thanks for stopping by! Our team will be on-hand to cover Steelers OTAs Monday so stay tuned for that!
