Pittsburgh Steelers 1.) Ryan Shazier, ILB, Ohio State Super fast ILB whose speed makes up for misdiagnosing plays sometimes. If he learns the game more, he will be an A graded pick. If not, he will be out of the league once his speed falls off. Sticking with an A grade though because he is a starter that I would call very good. 2.) Stephon Tuitt, DE, Notre Dame Is now a starter at DE. Last year had 7 sacks and 12.5 the year before that. In a 3-4 thats pretty good for your DE, so lets call him an A as well. 3.) Dri Archer, RB, Kent State Ran a 4.26 in the combine, but is tiny. Pittsburgh took a flyer and tried to install a few plays for him but nothing ever clicked. Was cut at the end of the year and hasn't played football since. As a player, its an F because he isn't in the league, but I give the actual pick a D simply because taking a shot at a guy who has the second fastest time in Combine history is never a bad idea. 4.) Martavis Bryant, WR, Clemson Would be an A, but the guy likes to smoke weed so he can't get on the field. Grade is a C right now, but if he can stay on the field it will go up. 5a.) Shaquille Richardson, CB, Arizona Currently starring at CB for the Calgary Stampeders in the CFL, so that tells you all you need to know at this point. Never even made the 53 man roster, so F. 5b.) Wesley Johnson, C, Vanderbilt Never draft a player named Wesley. Never made the team. F. 6a.) Jordan Zumwalt, OLB, UCLA Got injured in his first two years, so was IR'ed before playing a down. Was then cut before last year. F. 6b.)Daniel McCullers, DT, Tennessee Still on the team, but only as a backup. He did start a bunch of games last year, and had a shot at the starting sopt this year but lost to a rookie. I grade it a C because he is abackup, still on the team and was a 6th round comp pick. 7.) Rob Blanchflower, TE, UMass Was on practice squad, got waived lasr year and not playing anywhere now. F. Really strong at the top of the draft with good players in 1, 2, and 4, while writing 3 off as a gamble that you lost. Only one of player from that draft is even playing in the NFL anymore. So I guess a B. When you get three solid starters out of a draft and a stable backup, I call that a success.

Intruder posted:I didn't say he's a checkdown artist, I said he looked like one in college. I don't think anyone (fans I mean) expected him to be able to stretch the field quite as well as he does The thing people for some reason don't take into account is that like every college offense is designed for lots of short throws.
