Hey all. Since this is a new group, I thought I'd make an easy topic to start things off. Next week is the NFL Draft. What do you think is your favorite team's most pressing need to address?

Having been born & raised in Pittsburgh, I bleed black and gold. If the Steelers don't draft a left tackle that can move into the starting lineup right away, Ben's going to get killed. O-line, except for Pouncy, is weak, weak, weak. Hell, they should take o-linemen with their first two picks, then look at a nose takle & a running back. Don't forget Mendenhall tore his ACL at the end of the season.

    A great WR. We have Moss now, but who knows how long that will last.

    Yea I know. I was surprised you guys got Moss as self-destructive he is.

    Skins need offensive line and secondary. That is, of course, assuming that they don't do something completely self destructive, like not draft RG3.

    I'm not as concerned about replacing Ward since he was 4th or 5th at the end of the season. Cotchery is a good replacement as a number 4. Any receiver who is 5 will be playing on special teams (something Hines didn't do) so the top 4 won't be getting killed during kicks.

    Lions need to shore up their secondary, and strengthen the O line.

    True but Ward was such a persona on and off the field. Like the Bus. You would see Ward talking to the guys and keeping people up. Sorry maybe I'm just a fan of the Bus and Ward but I think they as people will be hard to replace (my thoughts the Bus never has been). You can find players to do a job. But someone to be a team player and be there on and off the field when on the side lines. Thats what I meant. I will be honest I'm new to football. Joined this for my hubby to have some place to vent and talk football. I'm still learning the game myself. But only team I ever liked was Pgh. Even when didn't live in PA. Not sure why but always they were the team I'd watch. Guess good thing since moved to the area and married a Die Hard Steelers Man. So for you guys on here. Sorry if the "little wife" sometimes seems lost. But hey at least I am willing to learn and watch with my man. Not like my girlfriend who head to the mall and spend money. And we don't live in PA anymore so I'm all he has to watch it with.

    Me too!! But I miss the one day draft. Dragging it over three days will make for excruciating over-analytical bull****!
