Ray Fittipaldo

7:42

Dolphins take Robert Hunt

Cris

7:43

Which Tight End will go first?

Ray Fittipaldo

7:43

My guess is Kmet, but I think Harrison Bryant is better.

Festus Dillon

7:43

Akers is going to be a better pro than probably projected. Seems like a true "Steelers Pick" - does everything pretty well and ran like a 4.47 40

Scott

7:44

Jags are going to take one of those RBs we want.

Brian Batko

7:45

OK I'm back. All I can assume is that the Patriots' first draft pick of the post-Tom Brady era was not a Division II safety.

Ray Fittipaldo

7:45

Texans take Blacklock

Nick in Long Beach

7:46

Hiking my breath on the remaining playmakers.

Brian Batko

7:46

Just make sure you wear the right shoes, Nick.

Tim

7:46

3 rb on board and shenault and mims too. If we picked now, which one do colbert and tomlin turn in

Ray Fittipaldo

7:47

Good question. I'm guessing Shenault, but those RBs would be tantalizing.

pdxJaxon

7:47

if we pick now, we pick Taylor

Ray Fittipaldo

7:48

Colts take Taylor.

James

7:48

Well, that one hurts.

Dave

7:48

Darn

Brian Batko

7:48

Wow, didn't expect the Colts to want a running back. But like the Lions, they saw one that was too good to pass up.

pdxJaxon

7:48

shoot....I need a drink

Mike

7:48

Shenault would be the only one of those 5 I wouldn’t want. We don’t need another 6’0-6’1 4.5 receiver.

DormontDirtbag

7:48

This is like a stress nightmare.

Brian Batko

7:49

Bummer

benjamin

7:50

Yup, I'm hoping for Shenault as well.

Ken

7:51

Hey Brian put the Wisconsin LB in the choices!!!

Brian Batko

7:51

Zack "Field" Baun

Santa FeRich

7:51

Crossing fingers for Akers now

Brian Batko

7:52

Cam Akers DESTROYING the field in our poll. I call this the Ray Fittipaldo Effect.

7:53

Twitter is saying Shenault is gone to Jacksonville here.

Ray Fittipaldo

7:53

Brian, as you know I'm off to work in TV if it's Akers. ha ha.

Tim

7:54

Taylor gone now, indy loves big ten players. Do Steelers view dobbins same or better than akers. Coming into focus now

Ray Fittipaldo

7:54

Both good players. Will be interesting to see if it comes to that.

Gravel

7:55

Odds this pick is not a "play-maker" seem to be increasing? OL or Edge more likely?

Brian Batko

7:56

Yep. Josh Jones, Ezra Cleveland on the OL might be in play. Zack Baun, Grant Delpit, on defense.

Tim

7:56

Gotta be mims, akers or dobbins

Mike

7:56

@tim I like that

Dave

7:56

I am thinking Baun

Brian Batko

7:57

What if all are gone?

Ray Fittipaldo

7:57

Wonder why Baun is falling? Maybe because he's a tweener.

Brian Batko

7:57

"Tweener" linebacker could be perfect for the Steelers this year. Makes six picks go a longer way. Same with a tweener guard/tackle or linebacker/safety.

DormontDirtbag

7:58

Josh Jones could be our OT for 10 years. Grab him.

Scott

7:58

any remaining teams before the Steelers still need a RB?
