Pick-A-Day 18: Pittsburgh Steelers

[DraftBoy]

The BZ's favorite game is back!!! Our annual pick a day game, because last years didnt get completed (my fault) and we have lots of new members, Ill go over the rules quickly.

I post the team who is picking, and each poster who wants to posts who they think the team SHOULD pick. Each morning (I know Im late), Ill tally the votes and whoever has the majority is the pick. We go through the entire first round and our first round mock is made out of it.

Everybody ready?

Here we go....

Reasoning: DB's are precious in the first round. The drop-off for WR's in the 2nd-5th rounds is not as great as the drop-off for CB's and S's.

With the trade of Holmes and Hines getting older the Steelers have to go WR here.

A little early but Golden Tate, Notre Dame

The Steelers took Mike Wallace last year and have Limas Sweed already on their roster.

The Steelers took Mike Wallace last year and have Limas Sweed already on their roster.
I don't think very much is expected out of Sweed at this point. Ward isn't going to last forever, and Sweed hasn't proven that he can be very reliable up to this point. I could easily see them going WR in one of rounds 2-4.

They also signed Battle and brought back Randle El.

Pittsburgh goes LT with Bruce Campbell

Iupati - this pick is a lock if the draft goes that way.
