Well
A center at 15th and a RB with 11 fumbles last year, and that’s a B??? LOL They must be a LOT smarter than I am.
I know what your saying but in all fairness I am sure that some fans know more about
their individual team vs. certain reporters that lives half way across the country and perhaps covers a local team full time or covers the entire NFL not to mention other sports at times. Draft grades should be given not only based on the talent of the players taken but the needs of the team drafting them and how those picks will in the future affect the team which is something I am willing to bet some on this site are way more aware of then so called experts around the country.

We didn't pick Heyward Bey, Pat White, John Nalbone or folks of that ilk
It’s a d in terms of excitement, but a b in stability and effect

I'm sorry, did you say "lik?"
That’s a first here in my experience…lik! gotta love that.
What they did with Pat White is gamble – on one of the most productive players in college history BTW – which is interesting as a lot of folks here are not happy the FO didn’t gamble this time. They gambled and lost…and now they’re getting ripped for playing it safe.
If you bust on them for John Nalbone should you not also praise them for Nolan Carrol, Rahsad Jones and 5th round picks of that lik?

'ilk' not 'lik'
And I’m just saying people are acting like we picked a Nalbone with each of our picks.
Corinna: Is This Hell? Preston: No, This Is New York. There's Not As Many Wall Street Bankers Here.
Sorry, Dyslexia kicked in there.
I get what you’re saying… Nalbone was a late round flier on a small college guy they thought might have some potential…that’s the thing with this draft,,,pretty muck safe down the line…Gates is the closest thing to a flier…but no one minds because, well, he is a flier.
I agree this draft might not be pretty buy it’s got teeth.

If Steelers had our same exact draft
Kiper gives them an A and best draft of the century award.
On The Mallett bandwagon... for now.
I should be in nomination for most hardcore 16 year old fan :)
Buckle your seatbelts for nothing but lockout talk for the next 4 months...
Because the one thing they do know...
is there are teams that draft well every year. It is kinda like shooting fish in a barrel to say the Steelers, or the Patriots had a good draft. It gives them some sort of credibility when they are right…

LOL The Pats could draft a 50 gallon drum of sludge in the first and most would still give them
and A on the assumption that Bill can do no wrong.

I noticed Noel Devine was undrafted.
I thought we would have given him a chance with a 7th round pick. I hope this damn lockout will lift so we can get players like him in for a workout.
Sure
There ya go. Feel free to visit it.

Give us a B+, saying it was a very solid draft.
They believe thats its clear the FO wants to give Henne a chance, so bringing a vet and focusing on adding offensive help in draft (as we did) makes best sense.
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Armando Salguero
Things like this make peeps hate Armando. He gives the Dolphins draft a………

Yes a C plus plus. What the heck is that? What a @ss.

Their gripe is team speed?
Gates, who? And then we got a quick TE.

it'd be nice if our fast guy could get open though
he’s not running past defenders with just speed, you have run crisp routes

He won't be a complete WR in his first year, which is why
I don’t want him playing ST. He needs to focus on being a great WR, not a great KR.
You can’t say that Gates doesn’t help the overall speed on the outside or that Clay doesn’t help with speed at the TE. That was what I meant.
