Draft: Day Two

With an amazing day one in the books, the Steelers are looking towards getting even better and filling some spots they need to upgrade. With David DeCastro in the first round the Steelers started the process of improving the offensive line. So, in the second and third round where to they go? DL? ILB? DB?

My pick for the second round has become a popular one, and I usually stay away from those. In a perfect world Penn State's Devon Still or Michigan State's Jerel Worthy would fall to us at 56, but I'm not thinking either will. The player I would love and would make a huge impact is Washington DT Alameda Ta'amu. He is a big body at 6'3 335 lbs and could learn behind veteran Casey Hampton, who is coming to the end of his career. 

The third round is a tricky one. The Steelers could use depth at ILB, WR and in the secondary. Yet they always need more help on the lines. With their third round pick, 86th overall, Brandon Washington OT/G. I know we used our first round pick on a lineman but with all the injuries and shuffling we did last year, we need more. He is versatile and has great size at 6'4 320 lbs.

Again, we are not rebuilding or filling holes, we are upgrading positions. I know some people are clamoring for a CB but we did draft two great prospects last year and we should give them a chance before moving on. We will just have to wait and see how this turns out but these two players would be huge for our team.

Also keep your eyes on Jared Crick DL Nebraska, Amini Silatolu G Midwestern St, Brandon Boykin DB Georgia and James Micheal-Johnson ILB Nevada.
