2010 DREAM DRAFT-what's yours?

Berry would be brilliant for us. Although it will never happen, i would love to see Toby Gerhart in a Steelers jersey, however, this is immpossible. Realistically, i think we need Nose Tackle or a guard, maybe a late round linebacker.

Nice Idea, sick today so I’ll do just the first 3 rounds.

Round 1: option a. Joe Haden-Can make the bad memories of losing Darrelle Revis to the Jets a distant memory, and could potentially make this secondary close to unbeatable. option b. Rolando McClain-apparently the next Patrick Willis, and opposing teams would crap themselves trying to game plan against us. Option C. Cameron Heyward-probably the most realistic of the 3, but he’s got my vote as favorite potential draft prospect, but could easily be out of our range of draft picks. Funny all 3 of these guys are juniors, and may not even declare, but I’d bet that at least one does, probably 2.

Round 2: option a. Dan Williams-We’ll probably get him in the first at this point. option b. Jahvid Best-another potential first rounder for us, many people have him slipping into the second round do to durability concerns. Option C. Stefen Wisniewski-Current Center for Penn State who is a native of Western Pennsylvania, actually lived right outside of Pittsburgh, and many argue that he could be the best center in this draft if he declares. If that’s the case it’d be a dream if we could get him in here.

Round 3: option a. Sergio Render-Not sure where he’s goin’ at this point, but it’s very possible that he’s drafted here. option b. Joe Pawelek-LB out of Baylor-Doubt he lasts this long but if he does the Steelers would love to pick him up. option c. Reshad Jones-Extremely doubtful that he lasts this long, but I’ve seen him project in round 1, and round 3, and even round 5. I’ll take him here.

A guy we could get as an UDFA at ILB would be Vincent Rey (Duke). I don’t know what it is with me and these big, slow middle linebackers. Rey moved to the middle this season, so he has experience at multiple LB positions. He has been a tackling machine, so he is well-seasoned. He could be a credit to the organization as a superb backup.

I want a free Safety that can cover, don’t care who it is.

I want a NT.

I want an outside LB to groom and back up Woodley and Harrison, I want him to be able to cover RB’s and TE’s.

I want a corner if K.Lewis isn’t going to take a top 3 corner spot. One that is big and can play physical like McFadden could.

But what I really want to see is Sonny develop into a very good DE, Mundy be that cover safety, K.Lewis develop and split time with Gay as second CB, Redman to turn into a more complete back and be a second punch with Mendenhall, Tank to take the FB/ST job and claim it as his. (do we even have him anymore?) and Burnett to look like a viable future starting CB. Then all we need is LB’s. Oh did I forget Shipley Urbik Foster and Legursky giving serious pushes to the starters, and maybe winning a spot or two? Basically I want what we were all hoping for this off-season when dreams of 16-0 were fluttering through our brains.

Interesting…….

Really tough to say right now, but from everything I’ve read, the Steelers would have no shot at Eric Berry even if they go winless for the rest of the season.

I have no idea what the Steelers will do, but from what I’ve seen so far this season, I’d lean to, in order of priority, corner, inside linebacker, nose tackle, safety.

For Eric Berry, I’d be cool with giving up a third and fifth rounder for him. Could you imagine Troy and Berry… good lord

Got this on a few other posts as well:
Round 1-Terrance Cody-need a young NT and he is best fit for a 34
Round 2-Mike Iupati-G Idaho-Line has played much better but could use an athletic brawler on the interior of the right side
Round 3-Daryl Washington-ILB TCU-Plays Sideline to Sideline, could groom him under Farrior, I believe he makes the TCU defense go while be gravely overshadowed by Jerry Hughes
Round 4-Myron Rolle-FS FSU-Took a year off to become a Rhodes Scholar this year. Don’t know if he is entering the draft or not, but if he is can dream he free falls this far. He is intelligent, fast, big, catches the ball, and would compliment Troy well in a year or two while be a great backup for either Troy or Clark if they go down.
Round 5-Amari Spievey-CB Iowa-If he comes out very good chance he won’t be here this late, but who says we can’t dream. Coming out the Big 10 we know he is going to be physical, especially Iowa, and has the physical tools to be so, 6 foot almost 200 pounds.
Round 6-Nate Triplett-ILB Minnesota-Kid plays with a lot of heart and is all over the field. Won’t ever make the starting defense, but would be a solid special teamer for us and God knows we need help every where on ST.
Round 7-Dane Fletcher-DE/OLB Montana State University-I go to school here so need to throw a shout out for one of our guys. Again, won’t crack our starting D, but plays like a man possessed and would develop into a good ST player for us. Recorded 17.5 TFL and 7 sacks during this year. Buck Buchanan Award Finalist, which is awarded to the best DE in the FCS.

and I think this was said above, but Micah Johnson seems real impressive to me. Guy’s a 6’2" MLB for UK, and a tackling machine. Also seems like he’s got good character, and is a team leader. Could be a steal in the 2nd or 3rd round.

Stevie Brown, S, Michigan - an underrated guy. Not specifically appropriate for this post, since he will probably be an UDFA.
