[3C's]

hmm. Why'd they trade up? dammit. I think a quality player would have fallen to them. Hope they didn't give up much. Maybe one of their extra 4ths.

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

Willie Parker owners breathe a sigh of relief (me included).

 

[jurb26]

All the same!

 

[Gangster]

 

[The Gator]

C. Jackson kickin' it live with the honeys.

Wow, if Jackson is there at 32 along with White. Pitt could have a very tough decision to make. I'd be either way they went with those 2 guys though!

Holmes ok?

 

[Ramblin Wreck]

Why does Chris Berman continue to make it look like he doesn't know the pick before it gets to the podium. It's clear from earlier in the draft that he is being fed the pick before the announcement.

Because he is a moron

Make that a ($)^&amp moron

 

[TitusIII]

Chad Jackson or Santonio Holmes....book it

 

[Chase Stuart]

PITT Trade.

DWilliams coming.

Think Williams goes to the Jets?

 

[Tommy Collins]

Santonio Holmes, welcome to Pittsburgh.

 

[Zowned]

Fred Taylor injury questions for the Jags and the Jets right after them...I'm thinking DeAngelo doesn't fall to the Colts...

 

[MSULions]

that makes no sense at all to me.

 

[Team Legacy]

Big Ben CONTINUES to rise up my QB rankings this year...

Man, they are TAILORING that offense to him.

nicely done Pitt.

Guess they didn't want Jackson or Moss, or didn't think they'd be there in time.

If hes not in your top 10, get him there.

 

[JZilla]

Damn, they aren't getting any worse.

Duce Staley still have a pulse?

 

[DoctorDetroit]

Couldn't have had him at #32?

 

[jurb26]

C. Jackson kickin' it live with the honeys.

Wow, if Jackson is there at 32 along with White. Pitt could have a very tough decision to make. I'd be either way they went with those 2 guys though!

Holmes ok?

If he is the #1 WR on Pitts. board, the yes. I trust them.

 

[David Dodds]

The rich get richer. I think this is an outstanding pick

 

[cracKer]

Roethlisberger = top 5

 

[Mr. Brownstone]

Fred Taylor injury questions for the Jags and the Jets right after them...I'm thinking DeAngelo doesn't fall to the Colts...

I'm thinking this as well.

 

[Gangster]

Holmes looks like he is gonna have a heart attack.

 

[chocolate bomber]

Willie Parker owners breathe a sigh of relief (me included).

Am I wrong to feel like we just dodged a bullet?

 

[Team Legacy]

PITT Trade.

DWilliams coming.

Think Williams goes to the Jets?

Those 2 picks above Jags and Panthers scare me. I hope he lands.

D Will and Da Brick. is better than Bush.

 

[diesel7982]

The rich get richer. I think this is an outstanding pick

 

[Billy1x]

Wow. The Steelers gave up a 3rd and 4th pick fo get WR that was likely to fall to them.. Ouch

 

[TitusIII]

Steelers steal the guy the Bears wanted...

 

[Bears_Man2]

Perfect place to trade (with Chicago) for Houston or Indy if you're looking D'Angelo/White with Carolina and Jacksonville picks looming.

 

[Milwaukees_best]

Willie Parker owners breathe a sigh of relief (me included).

Am I wrong to feel like we just dodged a bullet?

who got picked?

 

[Team Legacy]

Willie Parker owners breathe a sigh of relief (me included).

Am I wrong to feel like we just dodged a bullet?

I wouldn't be surprised to see a RB land to them in the 2nd. but yes, for now, you have dodged.

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

Willie Parker owners breathe a sigh of relief (me included).

Am I wrong to feel like we just dodged a bullet?

Nope.

 

[dickey moe]

Giants move down seven spots, and pick up a 3rd and 4th. Not bad at all.

 

[Bri]

hmm. Why'd they trade up? dammit. I think a quality player would have fallen to them. Hope they didn't give up much. Maybe one of their extra 4ths.

wow they did give up a bunch

 

[McBokonon]

Any chance Holmes drops far enough for the Steelers to package some picks and trade up to get him?

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

Okay Bears, take a RB.

 

[DoctorDetroit]

Wow. The Steeler gave up a 3rd and 4th pcik fo get WR that was likely to fall to them.. Ouch

Exactly. Not a great move at all. Good pick, bad management of that pick.

 

[David Dodds]

Wow. The Steeler gave up a 3rd and 4th pcik fo get WR that was likely to fall to them.. Ouch

No way this guy was going to last much longer. They probably had him around 18th overall on their boards.

 

[The Gator]

Roethlisberger = top 25

Thats better.

 

[nerangers]

Wow. The Steelers gave up a 3rd and 4th pick fo get WR that was likely to fall to them.. Ouch

He wasn't going to fall to them...and that is who they wanted...you can only sign so many players anyway, so why not get one you really want.Great Pick Steelers!

 

[meanjoegreen]

Fred Taylor injury questions for the Jags and the Jets right after them...I'm thinking DeAngelo doesn't fall to the Colts...

What about the Panthers? They could grab a RB.

 

[rzrback77]

Giants got two extra picks, great trade, a 3rd and a 4th and only dropped six spots

 

[Steelers4Life]

Couldn't have had him at #32?

Obviously they didn't think so, and they had a ton of extra picks to play with.Excellent pick, and it fills a huge need in my opinion. Giving up the last pick in the 3rd round and a 2nd day pick is a fair price, and most importantly, they got the guy they wanted.

 

[msommer]

Jackson or Pope now?

 

[LHUCKS]

the Steelers have excellent team depth, a 3rd and 4th mean less to their team than it does to a SF or HOU.

 

[The Gator]

Any chance the Jets get Jackson at 29? Brick and Jackson = great draft.

 

[Billy1x]

Bears just traded down to Buffalo

 

[DawnBTVS]

Looks like Buffalo traded with Chicago to move to the #26.

 

[rzrback77]

another trade...buffalo on the clock

 

[3C's]

hmm. Why'd they trade up? dammit. I think a quality player would have fallen to them. Hope they didn't give up much. Maybe one of their extra 4ths.

wow they did give up a bunch

Yeah. That kind of sucks. They do (did) have 10 picks, so they could give up a little. But their 1st 3rd and one of their 4ths to move up 7 spots? I guess they really liked Holmes and were afraid that the Bears wanted him.

 

[TitusIII]

Supposedly the Bears wanted Holmes, not sure if they are sold on Jackson. Trade down, IMO...

Steelers do almost everything perfectly as an organization. IMO this was not the smartest move but as you said, they fill their biggest need and do get a really nice player.
