Steelers have 4 1st and 2nd rounders on their line from the last three years, and Kelvin Beachum (7th) showed some serious ability at the end of the year. Unless his name is Womack, Steelers won't be drafting line in the first two rounds. Look Rush linebacker (Ansah, Okafor, Jordan) or ILB (Mintner or Ogletree- the way your draft plays out).

Difference between their LBs and O-line is that their lbs are actually under contract. And keep in mind they have Sean spence at ILB coming back from injury. OLB depth is definitely a need though I could see them going that direction for sure.

I'm familiar with the Lions situation and they'd be fools to re-sign Pettigrew. Considering how important TE is in their scheme, I think they have to take Ertz if he's there in the 2nd.

I don't make my mocks based on what the teams' biggest needs are, I try to give the BPA that won't cause a mess at a position as that is closer to what the real teams actually do. On my board Te'o is the BPA when the chargers pick and they could def use a ilb, especially with takeo spikes likely retiring this season or next.

I like this draft for the Chiefs.

There's about zero chance we go TE. For one, Pettigrew is already resigned. For 2, we have too many other needs. We still have Scheffler and Heller if Pettigrew keeps sucking. However, he had a pretty low drop rate in 2011 and caught 150 balls in 2010 and 2011. He's a pretty good TE who can block too. He was awful in 2012, but you basically have to try and resurrect his career given our cap situation and all. We have to get 2 defensive players out of the first 2 days, period. A project TE I could maybe see.

Yes, but this isn't even close to what RG3 went for. By your logic of Jacksonville moving up for a round less than what the chart said, Arizona should still owe a 2nd. Joeckel is a franchise LT and one of the best prospects at the position we've seen in a while. Its also a desperate need for AZ. You give the 2nd or don't get him IMO. Someone would beat your offer or Oakland can stand pat and take Jones or make sure they get Star there(no guarantee at 7, though they luck out in this scenario)
