Where's the dotted line???
Would love Tuitt in the 2nd but like I said earlier I don't see that happening.

2014 Steelers Mock Draft 1.15 - C.J. Mosely, ILB, Alabama 2.14 - Stephon Tuitt, DE, Notre Dame 3.(Comp, M.Wallace) - Troy Niklas, TE, Notre Dame 4.18 - Donte Moncrief, WR, Ole Miss 5.17 - Jaylen Watkins, CB, Florida 5.(Comp, K.Lewis) - Dion Bailey, FS, USC 6.16 - Wesley Johnson, OT, Vanderbilt 7.15 - DeAndre Coleman, DT, California === cityofchampsI do not think a single one of those players make it to the pick you have them going. Your best bet is Mosley simply because he is in the 1st round.

Your best bet is Mosley simply because he is in the 1st round. Yeah it's a little optimistic, especially if you are basing it off of certain big boards (some have Tuitt and Hageman in the 2nd). I think there's a pretty good chance Mosley will be there, But I'd be cool with Austin Sefarian-Jenkins or Kyle Fuller too.

Mack falling to the Giants is a pipe dream at this point, but no complaints there.
I am a bit confused by the Odell Beckham Jr. pick, however. If the Giants are going to replace Nicks via the draft, it has to be someone who plays like Nicks or has the skillset to play outside. Can Beckham do that? I personally cannot see the Giants going for a WR in the 2nd round, but who knows.

Eh, I just finished this and it is about 12am...I am half asleep so I will probably fine tune it a little...there was a big run at WRs in the 2nd Round that I didn't intend to happen haha.

I did some research and from what I've found, it seems that Jernigan's skillset best projects as a 4-3 DT instead of the 3-4 NT we're looking for. In our system, he would fit a 3-4 DE and we already have starters at both DE spots in Kendall Reyes and Corey Liuget.

In our system, he would fit a 3-4 DE and we already have starters at both DE spots in Kendall Reyes and Corey Liuget. That isn't to say he can't develop into a 3-4 NT. He played NT in Florida State's system, which gives him some knowledge about it for the NFL. He played a lot of zero-technique and one-technique NT for the Seminoles last year. And if your problem is with his size, I will give you an example with Pittsburgh's own Steve McClendon. When McClendon entered the league, he was about 280-290 lbs at 6'4". Now he weighs about 325 lbs and is our current starting NT. Traditional nose tackles are around 6'0-6'3" and Jernigan fits under that pretty well. I think he projects very well as a 3-4 NT if you are willing to wait a while to build him up a bit.

I think he projects very well as a 3-4 NT if you are willing to wait a while to build him up a bit. Florida State didn't run a 3-4 defense. They did at first, but they transitioned to a 4-2-nickle scheme by the middle of the season. All of the scouting reports I've read say that Jernigan projects better in a four man front than a three man scheme. If he could play NT in a 3-4 and we would have to wait for him to become that player, then no thank you. We need a starter at NT immediately. We can't wait. We're not spending a first round pick on a project.
