    The one that we pass on Leinart when we dont have a decent proven healthy qb on the roster or a reciever over 6 foot.

    Who do you want to block for Leinart?

    offensive lineman could have been addressed in the 2nd-3rd round.

    Your lack of football knowledge is quite apparent. O-Lines win championships, ours is set for a decade. Leinart cannot throw the ball laying on his back.

    I think we need to wait and see what happens in 2nd - 3rd rounds. If we dont come out of both with good players then you have all the right to say we **cked everything up. If we can somehow get Lendale White in this round i would say its a pretty solid draft.

    Regardless of where they were drafted, the steelers have a DOMINANT OL. We did not. We're getting there. Without a dominant OL, the steelers are not champions.

    Ok so our O-line is set...im fine with that....still doesnt make up for trading the 35...So now we'll get a crappy 2nd rounder from the redskins because unless something crazy happens they will be a good team. So now we have to wait another year or 2 before we can get any kind of off. to put up some points. Right now we'r still sitting as one of the worst Off. in the NFL. Im a competitive person and it doesnt sit right with me knowing that once again we will not be able to put points on the board.

    Quarterbacks and runningbacks can be addressed in the later rounds as well. What's your point?

    And many championship Olines feature players drafted after the 1st round. There is plenty of value in later OL picks.

    Well Leinart wont be throwing the football for us anyway.

    I like boosting the line with one of our top three picks, but now we spent both our first's and dropped all the way to the end of the 2nd round.

    Who is this line going to protect? Chad is done, Ramsey a headcase, I have 0 faith in kellen clemens, curtis is 33.

    Who is going to make the plays for us?

    Who is going to attempt to gain back some of John Abe's production?

    Having digested our picks, I am fine with them. Our Offensive line flat out sucked last year. We are clearly better in that department as a result of this draft. With out a good o-line it doesn't matter who you have on yor team, you will struggle. Defenses are too fast these days.

    We have all said our team would not be fixed in one year. At least now we have the makings of a very good offensive line.

    Yeah we could never win with a line of Jones, Kendell, Mangold, Moore and Justice*sarcasm*. God forbid if we never drafted D'brickshaw, our O line would never have ever improved. I mean if we drafted Leinart and not D'brickshaw, we would never have addressed out Oline, God damn idiots. I don't hate our picks, but I did want Leinart.

    I woould of felt good with Jones at LT Justice at RT, not different then D'brick at LT and Jones at RT.

    We had a chance at 35 to still pickup a playmaker and we blew it.
