For me it’s Chris Hubbard. Udrafted from UAB , practice squad , cut, then Gilbert has hamstring and suspension. Who else they got who coulda held his own at RT? 14 career starts and Munchak is behind this hidden gem nobody hardly mentions. Oh yeah the3rd center too . How valuable is this guy when you’re dressing 7 ? Second favorite is Mike Hilton only because he is finally getting media buzz, long overdue.
Still Marcus Gilbert for me. He has yet to allow a pressure since coming back from his suspension. It's clear the man just knows how to be a tackle.
Landry Jones Just kidding.....although that wouldn't be a horrible choice. Just a not very good one. My real choice of those not taken yet is Cam Sutton....would say Vince Williams but he is getting serious recognition this year that some were denying him in past years. J Wobble pretty underrated too
Great choices. Not surprising that you would pick a couple UDFAs. I'll go with JuJu. I think we've only seen the tip of the iceberg with this kid. His ability to win 50/50 balls at such a young age is amazing. Just think how great of a target this kid will be as he gets stronger and learns how to use his big body. He has the physical make-up to be an all-time Steelers great.
He was named all pro if I'm not mistaken. A much higher recognition. I would still agree he is underrated.
True in all honesty is probably Nix but I had to list Cam just because I feel like he doesn't get the respect around the rest of the league that he should. Seems to be a popular theme defensive linemen from Pittsburgh that dont get their full credit.
I agree that he is the next Steelers great. With JuJu exploding onto the scene so quickly would you keep Bryant for his last year or try to move him in the off season?
I'm gonna go off the board on my pick. I will reserve my pick for the player who finally puts the Evil Empire on their couches to watch the Super Bowl this year.
Keep Bryant and as many guys as possible for Ben's final push for more super bowls over the next few years
Hubbard for starters. Some of you remember I got to interview him last offseason, and he was literally the nicest dude in the world. VERY, VERY humble. Besides him, I'd name Ramon Foster, Heyward, Nix, Hilton. If I have to mention one not yet named, I'd probably go with Tyson Alualu.
There's no good reason that Greenwood is not in the hall. I can see the case for all three. Greenwood was a six time pro bowler, two time all pro, played 13 years and was a stalwart lineman on one of the greatest defenses ever.
