Still Curtain Podcast Ep. 6 (Pittsburgh Steelers 2018 NFL Draft Preview)
The 2018 NFL Draft is two days away and the Still Curtain Podcast has everything you need to know about all seven rounds of Pittsburgh Steelers draft expectations.
T-minus two days.
It won’t be long before all the remaining questions surrounding this roster are answered. Whether it’s another inside linebacker, the future franchise quarterback, or a surprising move at running back, the Pittsburgh Steelers are going to make noise with the 28th pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
From there, the options are endless. Pittsburgh doesn’t have much to fill, but with seven picks, this team is going to have one of the brightest rosters in the NFL. April 26 starts it, but the draft doesn’t end until the 28th, and the Still Curtain Podcast has everything you need to know for all three days of the draft.
Pittsburgh also made news this week for picking up Bud Dupree’s fifth-year option. As John Flavin explains, it isn’t a bad move for the Steelers. Even if they don’t want Dupree around next offseason, all the power is in their hands, and that’s the smartest way to keep it.
So far, the edge rusher hasn’t met expectations, but Kevin Colbert and Mike Tomlin are fans, and in this business, that’s all you need. Dupree is still looking for that breakout season, and if it comes in 2018, he’ll be looking at a major pay day next summer.
And all the rumors surrounding the NFL Draft. From the Buffalo Bills looking to trade, to the top five selections, the Still Curtain Podcast has it covered. In this Draft Week Special, the guys dig into everything the National Football League is going to offer over the next five days.
