Brad over here throwing rocks at the hornets nest.
Truth is, all y'all wanted the guy we got but now have to settle and defend the pick. I mean, it makes sense, but deep down inside I have no doubts y'all are aggravated as hell with the circumstances.

We took their guy and they panicked by taking someone that has no business being taken in the first round. So there is a reason y'all wanted who we got, because it was the right pick. However, Pittsburgh's pick was the wrong pick and, in turn, that makes it a shitty choice. Simple really.

While I agree drafting a guy with a 3rd/4th round grade in the first reeks of desperation, I can't help but think the organization isn't that upset. Besides, it's all moot right now anyways. This is literally arguing whose paper airplane will fly further while you're on your way to the store to buy the paper.

Best explanation I heard so far today (and mind you I don't follow the draft because I don't follow CFB).
Someone on the radio said this is like complaining to your spouse you want a new car for years and when they get you one you say it's the wrong color. The Steelers finally get a CB in the first round, six foot, almost 200 pounds, fast, producer....but fans are complaining he is the *right* CB. And then in the next breath saying the Steelers usually know what they are doing...except this time. Which is ANOTHER good reason I don't care about the draft: Nothing matters about it until the players take the field.

Its WAY better than the nfl. Saturday football for me is the meat and potatoes of the weekend. Sunday football is just the icing on the cake. nothing more. If you need to "pick" a team, choose the Iowa Hawkeyes. Their the team the SteAlers stole their look from. Black helmets, black jerseys, and yellow pants. Deceitful, two-faced she-woman. Never trust a female, Delmar, remember that one simple precept and your time with me will not have been ill spent.

Also, it's "they're", not "their".

What's that's supposed to be? Draft value?
Tomlin has missed on 1st round picks Jarvis Jones, Dupree, Mendenhall, Hood... In that same set of years cincy's bad 1st round picks were Gresham and Rivers. And we ended up trading rivers to take Marvin Jones or Iloka (can't remember which) Not posting this to slam: But the steelers and Ravens used to be a lot better at drafting than they have been lately. For Pitt the inconsistencies started when Tomlin was hired. Probably why he is moving the defense to a 4-3. I do think the Ravens have been even worse than Pitt.

You sound worse than some Steelers homers. Also Mendenhall was a very productive RB until he decided to call it a career at an early age.

Sunday football is just the icing on the cake. nothing more. I have a basic knowledge of each season...throw back to radio days when I followed scores and bowl games. I just have other things to interest me. I kind of pay attention to the "local" teams, Pitt, Penn State, WVU. I just don't have a horse in the race and I choose to not worry if the CB from some school I've never seen is better than the LG from another one, that's all. Plus watching the bigger school chew on cupcakes is annoying for half the season. I don't like the ranking system. I think that NCAA is corrupt and may be evil. So there's that too.
