1.15: Who Should The Pittsburgh Steelers Take? (1 Viewer)

[Frenchy Fuqua]

the latest from ESPN, NFL Network (Jamie Dukes) and Sports Illustrated all have the Steelers selecting Lawrence Timmons at 1.15 FWIW.

LT seems to be the best 3-4 OLB prospect in the draft, and the Steelers greatest need seems to be OLB. Most of the draft experts rave about his potential and upside....to me he does look a bit small compared to the OLBs we are used to seeing. But if Timmons is their guy I could live with that. Give him a year to get his feet wet with Harrison and Haggans and he'd be our guy in 2008.

Anthony Spencer is far more the size/speed combo for a 3-4 OLB - Timmons is very undersized for an edge rusher.

Sigmund, my dream pick in this draft would be Willis :drool:, but Carriker would do just fine IMO. Don't asked me why, but I don't want Timmons at 15, just doesn't feel right...

This is the craziest Steelers draft year in memory, they could take almost any position, and I would not be suprised.
