Agreed!! We need middle linebackers bad! Our outside lbs situation is OK. actually been playing well without woodley. Plus I think Derrick moye will be huge for the offense next year

I want Moye to be playin more this yr, he is our 6'4 guy and has great hands in traffic, we could have potentially the best 3 wrs Saunders, Brown, Moye
WR is the least of their worries

It's not about the quantity of the injuries, it's the quality, Timmons, foote, kiesel, and woodley are all not playing at 100%. Other than pouncy, who is key that the steelers are missing, has DeCastro really proved anything? Has Beechum or Adams really been a force? I think offensive line is the first priority right now, the defensed is aged and banged up but take it for what's its worth, polamalu is still a force, Taylor matches up week in and week out with the best of the best and consistently hold them to their low (save for Johnson). I don't really see defense as too much of a problem right this moment. The OL is just lacking right now.

Pride, sanders is departing this year, corchery is old and at the end of his career, mote hasn't really done anything special yet and brown is just not consistent enough. WR is a bit of a problem.

Are u kidding me?! U gotta b the only steelers fan saying the defense is fine! They are all old, almost every single one of them, as for the WR I'd rather get a free agent then draft one, the oline Is still young, ESP compared to that old defense

Their defense is not OK. The fact is they have 0 depth in the middle. An offense scoring 20+ points a game isn't a big deal. Though Haley needs to go

And tell me again how long did it take them to get a takeaway? The defense is a bunch of has-beens collecting the millions the steelers were dumb enough to give them

Trade away everyone, fire the coaches & gm, and then sell the franchise to Los Angeles! Then jump on the bandwagon of the best team. Problem solved.

Injuries on oline are problematic but there are 3 high picks there and at least 4 others that have done well... If they are healthy in July, there'll actually be depth there.. DBS get better with pressure, best immediate scenario is mlb, and a pass rush guy would do them best... A replacement at safety and a cb would be nice too..
Or go with huskers idea
