I don't really care, but I want all 7 picks to be on defense..

Except MAYBE a tackle.

Timmons is the coverage/athletic ILB with Harrison + Woodley on the outsides in the 3-4.

Hightower would step in at Farrior's run stuffing spot.

He's a 4.6/4.7 guy which is good for a 3-4 ILB of his size.

I know your a Pats fan. I just watched that, and its really interesting seeing Belichick dive into the plays like that x's and o's style.

I think Kuechly is the best defensive player for next year. The white mans version of Patrick Willis.

Hightower would be a good fit for the Steelers, he's also very versatile. You could line him up outside or even as a down lineman in addition to ILB.

He got a bad rep from his 2010 season, Hightower isn't that bad in coverage. Other than a token zone coverage and sliding out to cover flats, 34 ILBs aren't really suppose to be great cover men.

Good closing speed, useless timed speed be damned...

That's probably the last thing we need. Our LBs are pretty solid as it is and the only one bound to retire is Farrior. We need more on the OL. Or I'd like to see someone opposite of Swag that can actually cover.

I would love if the Saints got Travis Lewis but maybe we could get Brandon Boykin out of Georgia or Charles Brown out of NC. But we do need a good cover LB like Travis

Not a steelers fan but the Steelers shouldnt draft anything except Oline. Anything else would be kinda dumb seeing how glaring that need is

William Gay has been a lot better this year and Keenan Lewis is finally showing he can play. Carnell Lake is doing a great job as DB coach.

He had one good game at Cincy. Besides that, he's been taking it up the arse.

Looked a lot better against the Patriots* too. Especially compared to last year when he kept following Gronkowski into the end zone.
