Steelers Draft and Mel Kiper sucks thread!!

I know you know what I would do if that’s the situation.

 

Mitchell !

 

I got them Kool-Aid and Malachi Corley. That should help.

 

I agree with Mitchell be the higher rated, but if last year was any indication, they passed on Porter Jr and Christian Gonzalez to select an OL. Mind you, this is a little later that they’re drafting this year, but I think they value the big uglies more than the skill position. I personally think it’s harder to get a very good CB vs a very good OL.

but based upon proday attendance and 30 visits, I’m thinking they’re board probably looks like this

Mims
Barton
Arnold
Mitchel
Fantanu,

personally, I have it the exact opposite, except Fantanu remains as #5 option.

 

CBS's Ryan Wilson 2024 NFL Draft Big Board Player Rankings | NFL Mock Draft Database

Big board for cbs scroll down for MIA some dudes I
Like late are now in the top 100

 

the Steelers board is all that matters. I got Mitchell Arnold Barton Mims Fantanu DeJean
There are 4 lockdown CBs in the draft IMHFO Mitchell Arnold Wiggins Kool-Aid . DeJean is not going to be a boundary CB playing press man

 

It seems this year there are so many good prospects and depth available for us to select at 20, that it would be hard to make a wrong choice, unless they go off the wall and make a surprise selection that none of us saw coming… ie; DL Murphy or Newton

Daniel Jeremiah's top 150 prospects in the 2024 NFL Draft class

Pretty good board to go by, not an exact science.

Here is what I like:

He dinged both Sweat and Burton for their character, not a lot of anyalysts on ESPN or PFF don't have the balls to rank them as a GM
DJ values the slot CB highly. 46. Melton 50. Sainristil 51, Phillips
A few of my bang the table guys. 71. Muhamad Kamari 74. Ben Sinnott . Cedric Gray at 75 , I have been in his camp forever.
A favorite of both me and StlCrtn is at 140. Trey Taylor S Air Force.
For all the Jackson Powers-Johnson hype @ 34 is spot on and then Frazier at 37 is closer to reality they are not that far apart. Barton is ranked 22, cleaner injury history, more versatile. 73. Adissa Isaac, if there was ever a prospect to root for, this is your guy. Wait until his story comes out on NFL 360. If you don't get at least one tear in your eye, you're not human.
He dings Nate Wiggins for body type I would imagine, 36 is a fair grade. I think we all learned something with Emmanuel Forbes last year. Reality is the NFL requires more physicality, 28. Kool-Aid and 32. Rakestraw are more physical.

Here is what I don't like:

108. Austin Booker OLB Kansas 76. Troy Franklin WR Oregon 120. Patrick Paul OT Arizona 121. Kingsley Suamatala OT BYU. The are all ranked too low especially the OTs.

Miising in Action.

My man Javon Foster OT Missouri. Baldy likes him in the 3rd, even if he goes in the 4th that puts him in the top 150.
Tommy Eichenberg not rated, finally some rational thinking. He is slow, was covered up by talent, and has injuries and medical to clear.
An ILB I really like Ty'Ron Hopper didn't make it, I see it differently.

Latest Simulator run, pretty much really like it.

23. Graham Barton OL got my center traded back two spots with Vikings, stayed ahead of Dallas, GB, Tampa
51.Troy Franklin WR took the best player on the board
84. Renardo Green CB Underrated Nickel CB
104. Ty'Ron Hopper ILB an LB who can cover
108. Blake Fisher OT part of the 30 player visits
119. Tykee Smith S a Georgia Safety, no brainer
162. Muhamid Kamara OLB could be the steal of the draft
178. Kristian Boyd DT space eater with pass rush ability
195. Logan Lee DL draft crush, and I am not alone.

 

2 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS

Dave Bryan gets it . Cedric Gray is my pick in most of my mocks . He goes a bit Reachy in the 6th . The only fault I have is you need to slide back for Frazier . Not a lot but pick up a third from Arizona (66 or 71)
