2010 Steeler Projections & Strategy Sessions
|
|
| (1.) #2 RB / Depth at
the position
|
3rd Round; if it doesn't work out, then 4th or 5th round
(where there are four picks) |
| (2.) Offensive Line
Upgrade (RG/C especially) |
1st Round (Pouncey or Iupati) or 2nd Round w/ possible
trade-up |
| (3.) Defensive Backfield
Playmaker(s)
|
1st Round (McCourty, Wilson, or a trade up) or 2nd Round w/
possible trade-up |
| (4.) Outside Linebacker
Depth
|
3rd Round very rich in OLB... 3rd round probably comes down to
RB vs. LB |
| (5.) Defensive Line -
Youth Needed
|
Several DL prospects prepared for each round (fall-back
options if other plans don't work) - earliest likely round addressed: 5th |
|
|
| Overall "best-guess"
at how the positions will line-up: |
1st rd = OL; 2nd rd =
CB; 3rd rd = OLB; 4th rd = RB; 5th rd = DL/TE/WR/QB |
|
|
| Best case scenario: Trade down in 1st round - accumulate as much asset in
the 3rd round as possible. It's a very rich draft in rd. 3 for the
Steelers Needs. |
|
|
| Possible
trade-down destinations: #23 (Packers), #24 (Eagles), or #27 (Cowboys) - targets in this range would be CB
McCourty, OL Pouncey, or WR's
Tate/Thomas |
