ouch

Sanders for the Steelers? i dont think you’ll find many supporters of that pick here. we have 3 potential starting OTs and Sanders is a pretty huge reach at 24. we need a Guard(s). not a Tackle.
better selections would be Peter Konz, Dontari Poe, or Dont’a Hightower.

Thanks for the input. Ill definitely look at those 3 in the next version after the SB.

I am far from a guru

With that said, I am not sold on any position in the first. I wouldnt be angry if it was a tackle. Some of the other folks on here are a lot better than me so they will do a better assessment than I.

thoughts:

after the cuts to get under the cap in March, we’re going to have openings for starters at ILB, NT, OG.

Hightower’s my personal choice there although you can get a very good ILB in round 2 still.

OT is a need as we might be down to Gilbert and Colon after the cuts so your choice isn’t absolutely crazy. I haven’t seen sanders as a first round guy but who knows.

OT is in the second tier where backups are needed along with S, DE, WR and oh yeah, a FB!
