Go on record. 1st 2 rounds only. Didn't want Chop or Paul? who would you have selected? Not a position. Give a name.
For me? I'm already on record for a few years. I don't follow individual prospects. All I ever want is a position of need and no reaching.

(Actually, I don't expect many to go on record until November).
 
Barton and Haynes.

I wanted what I considered to be high floor immediate starters. Guys that would be long term solutions at LG and RG. But I acknowledge drafting guards in the first and second rounds is poor value. If the edge and LT we drafted become even middle tier starters they will be much smarter picks. You can get two proven middle tier guards for less than one middle tier edge or LT.

Most of the picks were a surprise for me so I was taken aback initially. Given time to reflect I see the wisdom in the selections and feel much better about them.
 
I really like Chop. I just do not understand the Wright pick. Even if he turns out to be good I don't understand it. The last position on the entire team to stockpile talent. I would've preferred Rosengarten to Paul as he seems like a better system fit.
 
I wanted Barton in the first round and Beebe in the second round. I felt going into the draft that drafting offensive linemen should be their priority and I’m not sure they got the best lineman available by selecting Paul in the second round.

There were points last year where we didn’t have Achane, Brooks or Wilson.

At the end of the day Mostert is still 32 and you never know when that mirage comes to an end.

Wright ensures you can maintain a high talent level in that room without having to spend money. We might need to cut RM after the season and save that nearly $3.1M in cap space.

If Mike McDaniel loves a RB, especially a big explosive one, you get that RB. I fully expect him to use Achane and Wright together.

Guys who can break tackles and take it 80 yards to the house are pretty rare.

Generally I agree but I feel Grier / Coach are still not sure of the JP/Chubb health issue and wanted to have some insurance there first.
 
I wanted 2 OL with top 2 picks, Steelers pretty much did what I had mocked a few times with Fautanu and Frazier.

I’m fine with Chop and Paul. That’s how the board fell, and I didn’t want to use next year’s resources to trade up.

Naturally, Grier said hold my beer and I’ll show you why I’m the longest tenured GM without winning a playoff game… The Steelers also grabbed an OG in the 4th right before Grier gave up a 3rd next year to draft another RB in the 4th… 😮‍💨
 
I wanted Malik Nabers. 😄 He was just out of reach. I’m fine with the way the draft turned out. I was surprised Miami felt Edge was as big a need as they indicated by their selections, but I get it.
