I hear alot of Adam Carriker, Jarvis Moss, and Darrelle Revis. But who do you think will make it? Stupid Comments are frowned upon.

To see who the Steelers will take, you have to think about the 15th pick, the best players will be gone by then, but they can still draft a superstar.
Their defense isn't as good as it has been in the past. Their defensive line is no longer intimidating, they lost Joey Porter, and their secondary has been substandard.
I think the main people they will look at are Paul Posluszny, Darrelle Revis, and Adam Karriker. Since the 49ers have the 11th pick, I think Karriker will be taken by them for their 3-4 scheme. If I was in the Steelers management room, I would draft Paul Posluszny. He can play inside or outside linebacker, and the Steelers need help at both. He's also from Penn State, so he's one of those tough nosed guys. He would be a good replacement for Porter, which is a huge loss for them.

I think that since the Steelers need help in the secondary and at OLB that they will choose the best athlete available in those two positions. CBs speedy Leon Hall of Michigan (4.39, 40) and bruising Aaron Ross of Texas should still be available when the teams picks at #15. If they decide to go with a OLB, Paul Posluszny of Penn State would be the logical choice, but he probably will be gone by then. If he is gone, they could pick slick Lawrence Timmons an underclassman from Florida State who possesses excellent speed (4.66, 40) for a LB and has good penetration skills. Any of these picks will improve the Steelers in a weak area of the team. Go Steelers!

I'm thinking we're gonna go for Paul Posluszny (hope that's spelled right) as long as he's still around by 15th pick. The only problem with him is a knee injury that some say he might not have fully recovered from. However, I've also read that he used the rehabilitation to not only get his knee back 100%, but also to put on 10 lbs. of muscle...so who knows what the REAL facts are. Other than that, he seems like he's got the potential to be a great LB for us. Plus, he's coming from Penn State...ya know "Linebacker U?"

Carriker if he is there, and in the 2nd round they go after Ted Ginn... Carriker to help replace Kimo and to help that line down the road, plus he played 3-4 End in college so he knows that position well.... Teddy Ginn and Santonio Holmes at WR, sound familiar? Heck they could got Anthony Gonzales in the 3rd round have Hines Ward, Santonio Holmes, Ted Ginn, and Anthony Gonzales as WR's, Ginn and Holmes return the ball more than catch tho

Leon Hall because the Steeler's secondary got murdered last year.Plus In the second round Adam Carriker if he is available and in the third round Tony Ugoh.

I don't know, but I hope it is someone that can help them fast. I hated seeing my Steelers not do well this year. And I hated seeing Cower go but hopefully a brighter day is just around the corner. A Steeler fan over 30 years.

carriker for sure if he is there, though i highly doubt it
so i say moss will be a good fit for the steelers.

Hopefully an OL, O-Line was like a sieve. How do you give up nine sacks in a game?! I almost thought the Texans' linesmen stole our uniforms.
Cheers.
