Pat, I am fine with the picks if it was the 4 or 5th round but not the 2nd round. Pat they were suppose to picking the best player available. The best ones in the 2nd round was Adams, if you get over off field issues, followed by Konz and even Robinson. The Steelers had no trouble picking Adams. So far, I give the draft a D. I do like our first rounder though.
Barry, the thing is this regime determines who the best player is for themselves. Unlike the previous one that went with whomever the "draft experts" liked and secured high draft day grades while taking overhyped players who weren't near as good as advertised.
