Steelers Draft and Mel Kiper sucks thread!!

Iron,

We where 4 rows from the top section 231 - row M.. in the corner - site lines where great - doesn't look like there is a bad seat in the place.. just ones that are more $'s than others got these for $65/each..

Only complaint - it was a little load (sound system) for 2 guys - on the other side of 50..

enjoy,

bb

 

Fixed it for ya ^^^^!!!

 

(I was at my First Pens game in the new build last night! 2-1 over the Cryers!! - Took my 83 year old dad - he loved it!)


Hope you had a good time bb. I went earlier in the year and a couple sock puppet monkeys when they beat the Isles 6-1.

No to Austin, don't need anymore Mountaineers on this team

But seriously I am a big fan of Hopkins or Woods in round 2.

 

I'm here and ready to start using this thing. Are we allowed to use expletives or is that still a shortcut to deleted posts and automatic censorship?

I'll christen my arrival with a quick little first-round mock. Feel free to ask why I made some of these picks.

1. Chiefs - Luke Joeckel, LT, Texas A&M
2. Jaguars - Eric Fisher, RT, Central Michigan
3. Raiders - Dee Milliner, CB, Alabama
4. Eagles - Lane Johnson, RT, Oklahoma
5. Lions - Chance Warmack, RG, Alabama
6. Browns - Sharrif Floyd, DE, Florida
7. Cardinals - Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia
8. Bills - Barkevious Mingo, DE, LSU
9. Jets - Bjoern Werner, OLB, Florida State
10. Titans - Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia
11. Chargers - Cordarrelle Patterson, WR, Tennessee
12. Dolphins - Ezekiel Ansah, DE, BYU
13. Buccaneers - Sheldon Richardson, DT, Missouri
14. Panthers - Jonathan Cooper, RG, North Carolina

28. Broncos - Cornellius Carradine, DE, Florida State
29. Patriots - Kevin Minter, MLB, LSU
30. Falcons - Keenan Allen, WR, California
31. 49ers - Kawann Short, DE, Purdue
32. Ravens - Jamar Taylor, CB, Boise State

Surprises included on purpose.

The Steelers seem more interested in TEs than I would think. Deon Sims and Keavon Milton (of Louisiana-Monroe) were both invited to private workouts this offseason.

 

I would love it if Dion fell to us, but something tells me he's not going to last til 17.

 

demo, why Jones to the Rams? With Long and Quinn at DE and Brockers and Langford at DT there's no starting role for him to take. All those guys are under contract for at least 3 more years and there is pretty good depth with guys like William Hayes, Eugene Simms, Jermelle Cudjo, and Matt Conrath. I don't see the Rams going D-Line for any reason seeing as they have 3 guys I think are pro bowl level on the D-Line yet no starting safetys on the roster and a glaring hole at LB.

BTW, I think the Ogletree pick at 22 would be a great choice for them.

 

I'm here to keep you guys in line.

Be good, play nice. :rolleyes:

 

The things you guys do to get away from me...I tell ya...

2k

 

Welcome 2k and Lyman. Always great to have fans from other teams.

As for your mock ironman, don't get my hopes up. Between hearing the Pens might trade for Iginla and now seeing the Steelers might be drafting Dion Jordan I may have a heart attack.

 

Fitchner was at Dysert's Pro Day

 

I'm in too

 

Alright who invited the riff-raff???

 

Hey Lym the Admin was on here earlier. I'll ask him how to make the fonts bigger so you can read them.

Nope! Not me. If it was purple, must have been 2K.

 

How are you guys able to use an avatar ? I've tried 3x and it gives me an error code.

 

Had the same problem. Iron mentioned that the AV has to be 80 pixels X 80 pixels or less.

 

What do I have to do send it paint and shrink it ?

 

Unfortunately the pics will not size themselves.

100x100 pixels or less is what the standard is (size set to the template of what was suggested to match the other site).

Paint works ok but if you have microsoft office picture manager its simple.

If you still can't get it to work you can email it to me and I will correct it and apply it to your profile.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

 

Just popped in to say howdy, for now. Looks like it's Steelers and Browns fans only so far.

 

saw this on CBS:

Reports have surfaced that the 2008 Defensive Player of the Year might be willing to return to Pittsburgh, but general manager Kevin Colbert has never been one to wait for replacement options and, judging by his appearance Monday at a private workout for Ohio State pass rusher John Simon, Harrison may have waited too long.

Colbert was the headliner among representatives from 12 teams at Simon's workout, according to a report from NFL.com's Gil Brandt.

The 6-1, 257-pound Simon starred as a defensive end for the Buckeyes but will likely have to make the transition to outside linebacker in the NFL at this size. He struggled when asked to do so in Mobile, Ala., during Senior Bowl practices before succumbing to a shoulder injury that kept him sidelined at the combine and during Ohio State's originally scheduled Pro Day, March 8.

Despite being hampered by a knee injury that limited him to just 11 games in 2012, Simon was named the Big Ten's Defensive Player of the Year with 44 tackles, 14.5 tackles for loss and a career-high nine sacks. On more than one occasion, the high-effort Simon was characterized by Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer as the "heart and soul" of the team.

Simon demonstrated enough athleticism during his drills Monday to reassure scouts from 3-4 clubs of his ability to pressure the quarterback as a stand-up rusher. He was clocked between 4.62 and 4.70 in the 40-yard dash and posted times of 4.42 seconds in the short shuttle and 7.10 in the three-cone drill. These times are in line with some of the other intriguing "second-tier" hybrid edge rushers of the 2013 draft class, like Auburn's Corey Lemonier and Southern Mississippi's Jamie Collins, among others.

Sporting similarly compact builds, as well as burst and power, Simon and the 6-0, 242-pound Harrison have a lot of similarities in the way that they wreak havoc off the edge.

If healthy, Simon could prove to be an immediate impact defender likely to be available in the second to third round.
