Since the Steeler's season abruptly ended against Denver, Steelers mock drafts have been one of the hottest topics on BTSC (along with offensive coordinator talk). Its pretty clear that the Steelers biggest needs heading into the draft are offensive guard, nose tackle, and inside linebacker. Safety, kicker, and running back (depending on how the Mendenhall situation turns out) are also potential needs but far less so than the first 3 positions. My question is what do you all think is the MOST glaring hole/needs to be drafted as high as possible, NT, OG, or ILB? This has been a question I have contemplating to myself for a while now. Farrior is just too old/slow to get the job done at ILB, Foote isn't much better, and Sylvester is still very unproven. Hampton had a noticeable dropoff this year and finished the season with an ACL tear, and I'm not sure McClendon has what it takes to be a legitimate NFL nose tackle. And we all know the offensive line, guard especially, is simply not cutting it.
