^ I think we are discussing it here until the draft starts, but actual discussion when the draft is going on will be in the CBox

Hmm looks like you might be down 2-3 CB options if the Steelers decide to go that route, depending who's left at that time. I sure wouldn't look forward to seeing Shazier or Verrett in a Bengals uniform either.. I agree with Verrett over Roby as well, while he has potential he's also very raw and seems to only want to tackle the ball carrier's shoe strings at times. Shazier would be more dangerous than Roby. Roby has alot of red flags. Problem is I don't think LB is a need for this team, so I'm not that thrilled about Shazier. OL would be my other choice. Really would love to see them beefing up the OL with 2 of there first 3 picks. That puts you in a pretty bad situation unless Lewan drops like crazy.. Of course he would likely be wearing purple anyways, but that leaves Martin up for the pickings. I have to say I like Shazier, that kind of athleticism for a 240+ LB is nuts, he could probably shadow any receiver he wanted and who be a weapon on delayed blitzes.

Uhgg there's a rumor that there is a link between the Steelers and Ebron..
Meh I want Fuller or Barr :/. But that would match the narrative of switching between O and D in the 1st round every year since before the Tomlin era...

walterfootball.com/Mocks/Mock/17968My first ever 7-Round Mock. Some of the picks are crazy, but realistically there will be some surprise picks The site has the order all screwed up though. It wasn't counting off the compensation picks, and it doesn't even have them in the right order. Solid Steelers pick. You can't teach those kind of measurables, although he would be a work in progress. He still has some trouble with his footwork and is really not much of a physical player, I like his return ability though. Honestly I have a feeling a team is going to fall in love with his potential and he'll end up going early. I managed to sway just about everyone else, but I actually like Fuller more as a fit for the Steelers. He has extensive experience in zone, he has no problem tackling and does a fine job in coverage, solid athleticism and size, and played all over the Hokie's defense from safety to in the box. I also would be pretty excited at the chance of getting Donald, he's just too impressive of a player to pass up regardless of scheme. He just seems like the type of player to build a defense around, and with their current players on the team forming a hybrid defense wouldn't be too much of a stretch. But my money is on Fuller, or Barr if he happens to fall. The rest of your draft looks fairly solid, I'd do backfips if they got Tuitt in the 2nd, I honestly think he'll go in the 1st round earlier than expected at that. He had a damn good 2012 season and go slowed down by a hernia which caused him to miss some training time and gain weight, then a fractured ankle. He took over at NT when Nix went down so he has that going for him as well as experience in other packages as well. The guy is only 20 years old as well. As for the rest I think they may target more of their pre-draft workout players that they typically go for. Phillip Gaines, Ross Cockrell, Donte Moncrief, Bruce Ellington, Carl Bradford, Quincy Enunwa being some of my favorites.

Just to let everyone know, I am probably going to update the Tracker every 10 picks or so. I don't want to be running back and forth to my computer after every pick.
