Steelers Draft and Mel Kiper sucks thread!!

I just want to go on the record that I think the Steelers FO fucked up by not signing Eric Reid, especially considering how shitty our DBs are currently playing.

 

That's pretty cool. What's the top score? 100?

 

Yes, it's based on a 100 scale, but no one gets 100... the best of the best would be around 90

 

Too many yellow stinkers. Some surprises. Like Pouncey, or either NT

 

They ranked pouncey low last year too.

 

Looks like Fort is the team's best defender? Burns is rated higher than any other CB and Chickillo is higher than Watt...Seems legit

 

I was surprised to see Toast is the top CB too. Don’t really get that.

 

Just shows PFF is full of it

 

Not validating PFF, but the Steelers are mediocre at best right now and the little squares back that up. I see (eye test) mediocrity on the field too.

 

The eye test is better than PFF every time.

 

Nice write up on Haden

it sure was ... and I'm in great hopes for "this" Haden developed a tightknit relationship with Burns - like Haden a former first-round pick - and his experience in Cleveland grounded him in a way to blossom . to help Artie regain his confidence and position.

It really doesn't get any better than Joe...

 

Yet ANOTHER blunder by Sashi Brown.



Now . . . Before Beach chimes in by quoting one (or more) of my past posts ragging on Haden's performance as a Brown, I was wrong. Wasn't the first time and won't be the last.

 

You weren't wrong. I ragged on him too. AB used to eat his lunch. I just didn't understand how injured he was from '14-'16. He couldn't even get an offseason in to work out and get stronger because he was always rehabbing.

 

I just want to take a moment to give thanks to THE most underrated Pittsburgh Steeler, Herb Waters (#35).

Since the Steelers added Herb to the team, they’ve posted a 5-0 record.

To the great Herb Waters and all that he brings to our glorious team!

#doitforHerb

 

Now, 6-0. Herb! Herb! Herb!

Also... back to Artie Burnt.

I’m not a big PFT guy but...


To be fair, he has improved. He used to carry a perfect passer rating. So he’s got that going for him.

 

It appears that the “whipping boy” tag holds water

 

Some uplifting news:

 

Ola Adeniyi has been activated to the 53 man roster. Michael Thomas was released to make room. Hope he clears waivers and makes it to the PS.
