Well, we need a QB, but I won't go there...
CB, DE, WR. Take the best available at the time.

Being a Steeler fan... there are not too many holes in our crew... genuinely we ought to continuously improve the right shield and handle positions... possibly get an exceptionally good nook back if there is one accessible at that element... loose protection may nicely be addressed interior the 2d day of the draft... the crew is especially solid in the different case...

They need help in the secondary, Offensive line and kick returner. Ben will be just fine. I'm sick of everybody saying he's overrated. You'd have a $hitty year too if you missed training camp, almost died in a motorcycle accident, broke just about every bone in your face, had an emergency appendectomy and got a concussion. He'll have all off-season to fully recover and come back strong. Why are people so ignorant.

We don't need a QB! Why does everybody say that, nobody said that when he got us to the Super Bowl and he has a bad year(remember motorcycle and injuries) everybody wants to get rid of him, I don't understand he is still young! I think they will go after a Offensive lineman or a Cornerback in the 1st round, maybe a big running back to share the load with Fast Willie!

here's how i view pittsburgh's roster:
QB: as far as needing a qb, you can take that idea and shove it. not only do the steelers have a rising star in roethlisberger, but a solid backup in charlie batch, who is undefeated in his starts for the steelers. in the unending quest for a 3rd string qb, the steelers may take one in a later round, or just stick with st. pierre or omar jacobs.
WR: i love how everyone was up in arms last year when the steelers drafted santonio holmes in the first round. they said that the steelers' recieving corp was solid and that they should have picked lendale white instead (who hasn't done jack-didley this year by the way.) the steelers could use another wideout, but not for anything above #3, so a 1st or 2nd round draft pick could be better used on defenseor the o-line.
o-line: i agree that the steelers should pick up a lineman either in the draft or free agency, but i'm not sure that they need a center. kendall simmons has been taking reps at center nad rookie marvin phillips is still sitting in the wings behind chucky okabi. fellow rookie willie colon can play either guard or tackle, so he can fill in for simmons if he takes over the center position. faneca is getting old, so it would be good to pick up another young guard to be his heir-apperent.
defensive line: brett keiselis good enough and i think aaron smith is underrated. the de position may be addressed on day two. tomlin may want another dt for a 4-3 defense after lebeau retires
safety: polamalu has Strong safety locked down, and mike logan is a solid backup. at free safety, there is ryan clark, who is a solid starter who knows his responsibilities with polamalu roaming the field. anthony smith is coming along as a ball hawk who can be another weapon for lebeau if he stays long enough for smith to develope. i think the steelers are set ant safety.
lb: the linebacker corp is one of the best in the league, but behind harrison, there are no solid backups. the steelers might grab one in the 3rd round or on day 2.
corner: townsend is getting older and is not as sharp as he may have been. taylor plays in the highs and lows of the season, so he's not as consistent as he should be. i think the steelers will trade down a few spots in the 1st round for a few late picks and pick up aaron ross from texas. they may pick up a 2nd corner in the draft with a later pick just to see if he can make the team.
rb: the steelers could use another pounder like bettis, but that style of back is hard to come by. a fb may find himself on the steelers' roster to try to take that role. kreider may be able to fill that role, but he doesn't get as mahy carries as he could.
special teams: the steelers are fine in this department. reed is an underrated reliable kicker and gardocki can still knock the ball 45+ yards.
I think that the steelers picks will go as follows
1)trade back for 5th rounder-db
2)trade for 3rd and 4th round picks
3a)o-lineman
3b)linebacker
4a)de
4b)dt
5a)wr
5b)o-lineman
6)db
7)qb

Oh yes, lets definitely replace the QB that was a great part of getting to the Superbowl, not to mention "The Tackle" that saved our season and got us there. I am so sick of people dissing the QB. Look at Grossmen! If you had a bad game or year it is always the QB. We need another WR to compliment Ward, I think...let the QB alone...we need fodder for idiots to write about.

I think they need a defensive end or corner, probably a bigger hole is DE. Their current DE's are Aaron Smith and Brett Kiesel (which I'm guessing you already knew if you're a fan). I think they definately upgrade on that with getting Jarvis Moss out of Florida or Anthony Spencer out of Purdue, both will probably still be available and both have a lot of talent. If they get a corner, look for them to take Leon Hall out of Michigan, Daymeion Hughes out of California, or Aaron Ross out of Texas.

How about a DB of sorts? They really do have a pretty solid core of players...they may need another DB though? Having a star CB couldn't hurt.
