2008 Draft,Pens Playoffs


The 2008 NFL Draft is set for Saturday at 3pm.Originally I was going to do a mock draft,But everyone and their brother is doing these now.The Pittsburgh Steelers pick #23,I don't see them trading up, but possibly moving down to the 2nd round,Why you ask? The Steelers need a RB who can do more then 3 yards,And a cloud of dust,They will get this with their first pick Jonathon Stewart from Oregon.He could be the 2nd best,Or the best RB in the draft,And if he is there for the taking, The Steelers will select him.The only real needs they have are OL,DT.Kevin Colbert, their director of football operations has said he may get that "tall WR" that large Ben has been craving,With Cedric Wilson being released the Steelers are down to 3 experienced WR'S.The only other option with the first pick would be Branden Albert,But it's very doubtful he'll be there at #23.The Pittsburgh Penguins start their 2nd round series against the New York Rangers on Friday night,Anyone who read the blog before the playoffs started,Knows i picked then Pens in 5,But it only took 4..This time,I'll have to say Pens in 6,And in the immortal words of Mike Lang..Elvis has left the Building

So the Steelers aren't satisfied with your boy Willie Parker? They would pretty much have to take Stewart if he fell that far.

it's not they aren't satisfied,would be nice to get a RB to take some of the workload..
