Hey guys,

Been super busy with the new RV, family covid shots, and work coming back, but I'm doing a podcast on the draft tomorrow with our resident draft gurus Matt and Ben.

Let us know if you have any questions you want us to address, and you know I'll get to em, no matter how much I have to edit Supe's questions...

Show will start at 6:30pm EST if you want to watch live.

Cheers!

Hey there Cope, thank you and good luck with life !!!!!


1) If LT and RB are both there and the value is near same, which position do we take. I've read both sides and I'm more OL orriented.

2) What round do you think the HILL kid will go and could he hold the fort down for us if we chose him (center 4th rnd possibly 3rd)

3) Unless a premier LT is there in rnd one I'd back off. what is our BIGGEST single need?

4) What about draft parties or get togethers specifically for the draft...... do any of you guys have those kind of plans or solo home watch ?


All good out here in the west and best wishes you way.

If both top RBs are gone who else do you like? Is there a mid round kid you like for RB?

If Payton Turner is there in the 3/4 rounds do you take him?

With the WR additions made already, do the Steelers still draft one?

If you get a solid OT in the 1st and C/RB/CB are close in BPA for round 2...which way do you go

Late round sleepers you would like the Steelers to take a flyer on?

Which are the top OT that you can't pass on at 1.24?

How does the top 3 RBs compare to the top RBs in last year's draft?

What CB, if any, you feel you have to pick above any RB if he is still there at 1.24?

Can we see a pic of the RV? Will you be doing podcasts in it? Steelers usually draft for a BPA of need. What positions do you see possibly in the first? And what ones would you eliminate?

Cope, how about some dialogue amongst you three regarding how no one, not even the national media “experts”, are talking about all of the players who opted out or didn’t play last year will be so far behind everyone else that their impact this year will be minimal at most. No OTAs, possible limited camps again, shortened pre-season. Maybe a couple will have impact as rookies, but the majority will be depth chart mannequins until thrown to the wolves against the vets. Agree/disagree?

Yes. Samuel Jr, or Horn. I go elite CB over RB/OT/C, and with all the QB madness, one of them may drop into our laps.

With our problems drafting CBs, this feels like the first draft in ages, where you can grab a lock down starter, late in the 1st.
