Re: Steelers Draft
I don’t think he’s comparing Claypool to Young. He’s just pointing out sometimes college numbers aren’t overly relevant in terms of what NFL teams are looking for.
Re: Steelers Draft
I wasn’t at all. My point was if you cherry pick numbers from the 3 most difficult games of the season, you probably won’t find many players that enticing to draft. The 3 best OLs Chase Young faced resulted in 0 sacks. Yet he was still drafted #2 overall and is one of the best NFL prospects of the last decade or so.
Claypool might be out if the league in 3 years. If someone I were to know made that bet with me, I would bet a lot of money he won’t be out of the league. This is a league now that goes 4 wide on nearly half the formations.

Re: Steelers Draft
Should the Steelers go for Andy Dalton now that the Bungles are giving the keys to the kingdom to Burrows? Hey, he's only 32, would be a better solution as backup to Big Ben than the other who dey that they have now.
It ain't over until it's over.

Re: Steelers Draft
Yes but keep ducky around too, Dalton isn’t long term answer(doubt other 2 are either)
Re: Steelers Draft
Jameis Winston signed for 1.1 million. If I were the Steelers I would be going after Dalton or Cam because they might now be forced to sign much lesser contracts. If they want Teddy Bridgewater money like 8-10 mil a year to be a backup I’ll stick with Rudolph and his rookie contract of a few hundred thousand. As much as I cursed Rudolph last year he did win a few games with a god awful group of talent around him...

Various sources say that Winston turned down the Steelers and more money to sign with the Saints.LeeCorso wrote: ↑May 2nd, 2020, 12:03 pm Jameis Winston signed for 1.1 million.
