Good morning kids ....time to get started

A non-draft question if you want one: if you consider the 70's Steelers the gold standard (and why not) which Steeler players since then would make the team and perhaps supplant a starter from the 70's?
Gerry Dulac
11:01
Great question, especially not about the draft. Answer: Believe it or not, Isaac Seumalo
Stairway to seventh seed

Gerry: If Justin Fields were coming out of college right now, based solely on talent and his college performance, wouldn't he likely be the #1 pick in this draft?
Gerry Dulac
11:02
So you're basically saying he's better than Cam Ward, this year's No. 1 pick. And you're probably right
Guest

Shedeur Sanders, Derrick Harmon, or Kenneth Grant. Who do you believe the Steelers take between these 3 at 21?
Gerry Dulac
11:02
Not Sanders
Stairway to seventh seed

Gerry: in the AP mock draft, they had the Steelers trading next year's 1st round pick to get an extra pick this year.  Could you ever see them doing that with the draft at home and no idea how high that pick might be?
Gerry Dulac
11:02
Not happening. Borderline preposterous
John
11:02
I am starting to think that shedeur sanders talks are smoke screens. What is your opinion?
Gerry Dulac
11:03
Very perceptive
Trey
11:03
Who do the Steelers like more in your eyes... Dart or Sanders?
Gerry Dulac
11:03
I don't think it's going to matter

Are you surprised there was not more of a public reaction from Pickens since the Metcalf acquisition?
Gerry Dulac
11:04
Maybe that's a good thing. Or maybe we should give it more time

Gerry, I'm getting the sense that most of the fanbase is rooting hard for Rudolph. He comes across as a good dude. Does the locker room feel similarly?
Gerry Dulac
11:04
Yes they do. Universally
John
11:04
Do you think George Pickens is getting a contract extension since he is not getting traded?
Gerry Dulac
11:05
Nope. And who said he's not getting traded? They have until November to do so

Good morning.  Ray wrote an excellent piece about how Colbert couldn't miss from 2000-2012, but then the drafting went downhill after that.  That would have been 5 years into the Tomlin reign.  Is this when he started getting more power?  Isn't that when the organization spiraled downward?
Gerry Dulac
11:06
That's not when he gained more power. And, despite what you might think, he is not autonomous when it comes to making decisions.
Yogi in Yonkers

Prediction time: Do the Steelers select their running back Friday or Saturday?
Gerry Dulac
11:06
Friday, but it depends....
Bill in LA

Gerry, do you think we are likely to see anything unexpected in the draft from the Steelers, such as trading into the second round, drafting a QB in the first, or can you name any other possible surprises?
Gerry Dulac
11:07
You mean like taking a safety from South Carolina in the first round..??
Bill in LA
11:07
What do you think the Steelers believe Mason Rudolph's weaknesses and limitations to be?
Gerry Dulac
11:08
He's not a legit running threat. Otherwise, none.
Guest

Do you think the organization could contain the circus if Sanders is drafted?  His Dad will certainly insert himself into his career.  Deion and Tomlin are probably the two biggest egos in NFL history.  Could they coexist?
Gerry Dulac
11:08
I don't think you have to worry about that happening. At least, let's hope not
James D.
11:08
Alright Gerry, do you think Sanders is there at 21?  Name 1 position outside of DL or QB the Steelers may select in Round 1.
Gerry Dulac
11:09
You mean other than DL? RB, WR
Ken
11:09
I am hoping for a DL first round but I am feeling they are going to reach for a QB. Am I wrong?
Gerry Dulac
11:09
You are wrong. The last thing they will do is "reach" for a QB. The Kenny Pickett mess -- the best QB of an average draft class -- is still fresh on their mind.
Mr Smith
11:09
Gerry thanks for the chats. What round do you see the Steelers taking a qb? Do they also draft two dl this weekend?
Gerry Dulac
11:10
Maybe the fourth.

Many in the Steelers fan base think Arthur Smith is a terrible OC. I think he's a good OC that was hamstrung by mediocre QB play and bottom 5 WR corps. What do you think?
Gerry Dulac
11:11
I'm willing to give him more than one season to make a judgement. Where were those people when they got a 4-2 record from Justin Fields and were averaging nearly 29 points a game when they were 10-3??
Lou

Hi Gerry. Sanders seems like a very controversial 1st RD pick. What’s your take on him being a good QB1?
Gerry Dulac
11:12
It doesn't seem as though a lot of teams are sold on him being a No. 1QB anywhere.
Rich in TN

Good Morning Gerry...  I doubt anyone on the planet knows for sure who's gonna be QB1 week 1.  That said, will Smith likely be formulating 2 offensive schemes depending on who we land?  Roger's doesn't seem like a fall in line kinda QB. Cheers.. and thank you.
