Are the Steelers limited in the number of prospects the can video conference with like they were with in person visits?  Have you heard any names as far as who they've been in contact with?
Gerry Dulac
11:23
They did 37 video interviews. And I can't say for sure which players they were, sorry
Tyler

Just curious...do you have any knowledge of specific players the Steelers front office is targeting tomorrow night?
Gerry Dulac
11:24
Yeah, I know some...

Hi Gerry, why are so many people thinking of life after Ben for draft purposes? when they should be thinking about life with Ben. I find it hilarious how undervalued Big Ben is in the eye of the public. When in fact i will take him over 97% of the starting QBs right now.
Gerry Dulac

Pay the man!

have you heard anymore about the Steelers trading back with the Pats?The pats have a bunch of draft picks and this years draft seems deeper than past years
Gerry Dulac
11:25
Anything is possible. That is more likely than trying to trade up into the first round.

Everyone is so quick to show Ben the door and forget what life was like before he got here. careful what you as for!! First ballot HOF QB still playing at a very high level people need to show some respect!!
Gerry Dulac
11:25
Agreed.

Gerry, I would like a mulligan on my previous comment about Lefty/Tiger.  This goes to show you how much this "stay at home" stuff has affected my mind.  I didn't watch the first one. What was I thinking???
Gerry Dulac
11:25
Haha. Mulligan granted.

Will the Steelers bring in a few FA punters to compete ?
Gerry Dulac
11:26
They do every year. I'm sure they will again.

In a normal year do you or any sports reporters get to go inside the draft room
Gerry Dulac
11:26
No, not even in an abnormal year. Of course, the draft room this year is Tomlin's home.

Hi Gerry, looks like Jerry Jones will be alone in his house drafting for the Cowboys tonight. How insane will his picks be?? Does he use his first round pick on some European player he saw on YouTube?
Gerry Dulac
11:27
Can't even imagine.

What are the Steelers 2 biggest needs on offense and 2 biggest needs on defense coming into the 2020 NFL Draft?
Gerry Dulac
11:27
WR, No. 1 RB, ILB, OLB
Willie
11:27
Gerry -- do key players (Ben, Cameron, etc) have any input into draft priorities ?
Gerry Dulac
11:27
None

What position do you think the Steelers target in round 3? assuming they select an offensive playmaker at 49
Gerry Dulac
11:28
It depends. If it's a RB on Rd 2, then maybe a WR. If it's a WR on Round 2, then probably a G or OLB (if there's one they really like)

Gerry -- if we're looking to upgrade the running game, don't we need to tweak the  o-line first ?
Gerry Dulac
11:29
The first thing toward improving the running game is getting Ben back. That improves everything.
Tom
11:31
What would you think of trading back with pats to get extra choices in a deep draft?
Gerry Dulac
11:32
Back to where? I don't see the Patriots with a pick anywhere in the second round.

Who returns kicks next year?
Gerry Dulac
11:33
Maybe the guy they draft
Jeff
11:33
no question but instead a thanks.  Since I have some free time I went tried to find some AFC north blogs and even read a few.  You and the other writers win the north every year!
Gerry Dulac
11:33
I've already mailed your check.

Hi Gerry, If the Steelers do not get RBs Taylor or Aikers early, is it possible they pickup the bulldozer AJ Dillon later in the draft?
Gerry Dulac
11:34
No. They don't need any more RBs if they don't draft a No. 1 RB
kevin in Punxsy
11:34
I guess that if the Steelers have to have a year with no #1 pick, this one seems to be a good one.......lots of WR, RB and D linemen.....players the Steelers need.
Gerry Dulac
11:34
Agreed.

Any chance Augusta will ever have an LPGA Masters ?
Gerry Dulac
11:35
None. They've already done their part with the women's amateur.
Tyler
11:35
Defensive players that, if they dropped, would be hard to pass up...any names on that front?
Gerry Dulac
11:36
I don't think that's in their plans. Now if Chase Young happened to drop......
