Brian Batko

8:48

Dave Gettleman's draft room reminds me of our fantasy football drafts growing up. Always had 'em at my friend Gabe's house, and it was always a fight who got to sit at the desktop computer.

Ray Fittipaldo

8:48

Whoa. Andrew Thomas.

Jerry Micco

8:49

Joe Judge has a great dog.

Wow, that's a bit high for Thomas.

Nitro

8:50

Where did you have him ranked Ray in position

Brian Batko

8:50

The OL projections have been all over the place since the combine. Feels like all of Jedrick Wills, Tristan Wirfs, Andrew Thomas and Mekhi Becton have been considered the top guy at various points.

Ray Fittipaldo

8:51

fourth among the tackles i think

Mike

8:53

Haha why is gettelman wearing a mask IN HIS OWN HOUSE?

Brian Batko

8:53

Can never be too careful, Mike.

Lenny

8:54

Ray which guard do you take in round 4? Simpson, Dotson, kindley or Lemeuix

Ray Fittipaldo

8:54

Of those four I like Simpson

Jerry Micco

8:54

He's trying to hide from the Thomas pick.

Ray Fittipaldo

8:55

Dolphins take Tua

Jerry Micco

8:55

Ugh. The Commish butchered his last name.

Ray Fittipaldo

8:56

Maybe he can hear the boos from Hawaii

Mike

8:56

I think chargers go herbert now.

Ray Fittipaldo

8:56

Yeah I agree. Can't ride with Tyrod Taylor.

pdxJaxon

8:56

Chargers HAVE to go Herbert

Brian Batko

8:56

Justin Herbert just looks like a Chargers quarterback to me.

Jerry Micco

8:57

You know, if I'm the Chargers, I look hard at Simmons or maybe Wirfs. If you have money to spend, talk to Winston.

8:58

You're right, Brian. Dan Fouts, while not as big, just has that look. Rivers did, too.

pdxJaxon

8:59

lol. the commissioner SLAYED Tua's name worse than he slayed Mariota's name a few years back.
Good God

Nitro

8:59

Most likely surprise early pick in Round 1 - name of player and team please. Has to be a QB right?

Mike

8:59

Yeah...chargers have a lot of experience with a QB who likes to turn the ball over in the clutch in the past 2 decades

Brian Batko

8:59

@Nitro: Gonna go out on a limb and say DL Raekwon Davis.

Ray Fittipaldo

8:59

Too bad Rivers didn't play for them in 1994. Ha ha

DormontDirtbag

8:59

No WRs or RBs taken yet. Everything falling Steelers' way.

Ray Fittipaldo

8:59

So far.

pdxJaxon

Good Observation DormontDirtBag

Jerry Micco

WRs start around 11 and then it'll be a run on them.

Brian Batko

9:00

First WR taken

7-10 (33.3% | 7 votes)

11-15 (61.9% | 13 votes)

16-20 (4.8% | 1 vote)

20 or later (0% | 0 votes)

Total Votes: 21

Dude

9:00

Jerry is right - take Wirfs or Simmons and then go after a qb elsewhere

Mike

9:01

I think someone is going to take rb taylor in the 1st. 4.3 rbs who were productive in college usually don’t last too long

Ray Fittipaldo

9:02

You might be right. Swift probably first RB off the board, but Taylor is in that late first- or early second-round range.

Chargers take Herbert

Brian Batko

9:02

Must say, ESPN is doing a great job with this presentation. Much better than some of the shows I was half-watching earlier today.

brett

9:03

Hypothetical question, I know we will most likely go offense with their first pick, but say a great value pick is there on inside or outside linebacker or safety, which is the most area of need do you believe the Steelers need

Ray Fittipaldo

9:03

The hybrid LB.

Brian Batko

9:03

Almost looks like Herbert is wearing a bolo tie in honor of Phil Rivers.

Mike

9:03

Yeah I am trying to figure out what station to watch online from. ESPN has the best one right now but picks are delayed
