@Buck 100 yrs ago today arguably one of the greatest sports announcers of all time was born. Happy heavenly birthday to Hall of Famer Jack Buck. What an American treasure. Had the pleasure to work with him at the 1991 NLCS in Pittsburgh. A true gentleman. Miss you Mr. Buck!

@ASaunders_PGH Looking like the big “trade up” splash may happen tomorrow night

The #Lions go out of consensus order for Clemson OT Blake Miller. Shaping up nicely for the #Steelers. Three picks ahead: Lemon, Cooper, Concepcion Thieneman Freeling McCoy steelersnow.com/2026-nfl-draft…

@ByJoshCarney No reason to trade up now

The #Steelers are about to be on the clock in about 5 picks. Best guesses: -USC WR Makai Lemon -Indiana WR Omar Cooper Jr. -Washington WR Denzel Boston -Oregon S Dillon Thieneman -Ohio State DT Kadyn McDonald -Tennessee CB Jermod McCoy

@Steelers_DB Who didn’t like Vega????

Every year a prospect I like more than consensus goes to the AFC North 😒

I am sad.

@BrianBatko It’s all good. Crazy night!

@GStartari I played with fire and got burned

The tower is coming together!

@BrianBatko Told you he wasn’t falling to number 21😉

VEGA!

@Steelers_DB 🤣🤣🤣

Dan Orlovsky just ascended to the afterlife

@BrianBatko What??? Totally the opposite—he is overcome with emotion and thankfullness. He just gets it. Could’ve used a guy like that in the Steelers locker room.

Is it just me or does Jordyn Tyson look ... uh ... not too thrilled.

@PittsburghSport Good news, though the Giants did not take a receiver at number 10

Down goes Tyson.

@Alex_Kozora I love it. Why do we need to keep rehashing what these players did —we’ve been listening to it for the past 3-4 months.

Networks definitely going to ask the NFL to go back to 10 minutes. This is too fast. One quick interview, 30 second coverage, multiple 1st round picks already in. Just start the draft at 7!

This draft is flying by. Might have the #Steelers pick well before 10 PM tonight.

@Alex_Kozora Maybe earlier than that if they trade up 😉

@NealCoolong My bad I thought he was announcing the first round tonight

James Conner has to announce the team's second-round pick a day after he lost his job. That's mean.

@NealCoolong And naming a running back to boot

@AdamSchefter Nobody “Cheats” better than the New England Patriots

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said on a pre-draft interview with ESPN that the Mike Vrabel situation did not fall under the league’s personal conduct policy, and that it was a team matter.

@Chucky19G @AGretz Yeah, I get it. You’re upset and all of this coming against the hated flyers —but trust me he does care. He’s a professional athlete. A good teammate & he’s not the only one on this team not playing well it’s the great majority of the team underwhelming. Including the captain

@GStartari @AGretz No I don't think they would've won too but we'll never know because of his stupid penalty. Also, defensively, he couldn't care less and this is f ing frustrating to watch.

I'm kind of annoyed that Mantha got a shift on that last power play after that penalty he took.

@Alex_Kozora looks great - hope it generates a ton of $$$ for local businesses. Not sure about the 4" of snow comment but I get that weather can be iffy in Pittsburgh in late April.

Looking like an amazing turnout for the draft. Perfect weather sure doesn't hurt. For a city that could've gotten 4 inches of snow and no one would've batted an eye, this is great.

@Chucky19G @AGretz outlier year for Mantha & he's never led a team in scoring - not sure I believe Pens win even if he didn't take the penalty. The others considered as more stars of the team (playoff vets/tested/some of them Cup winners) &t hey have not showed up (like Mantha) -that was the point.

@GStartari @AGretz He's the top scorer of this team and in 3 games he put more pucks in the stands than in the net.

@chadbrown94 and Trump listening to it and then saying, "that's right." What an absolute ignoramus. And fraudster. And election interferer. And defamer/sexual abuser. And narcissist. And chronic liar. oh, and racist.

We are now at the point of trying to make math bend to the lies of the president. These people are clowns, no other way to put it. What a sad terrible place we are all in. And of course RFK Jr’s first example is wrong. It’s a 500% rise. And the second example is a 83.33% drop. #KnowMathDoBetter

@DVEMike yes-yes and yes Mike. How big were the other factors in the game---like not converting (or even getting off a shot) on a 3 on 1 in the 1st pd that could have made it 2-0 Pens. Or the 2 softies Skinner let in in 2nd pd. Everyone wants to bitch about refs - look in the mirror folks

3. Sid said he didn’t embellish. Muse said Sid didn’t embellish. But if Crosby didn’t, how do we account for a player as strong as any on his skates responding with delayed-reaction drop like he’d been sniped from the upper deck? The fetal position is a bad look for the captain.

3 Takes That Resonate from Flyers 5, Pens 2: Boucher on TNT: “The gameplan for the Flyers was to be the initiators. They talked about it before the series. Pittsburgh got a little bit unglued after the whistles but it’s the Flyers who initiated all of it.” Pens fell into the trap

@MikeDeFabo @TheHerd great segment Mike - enjoyed it---nice work as always

Joining @TheHerd shortly to talk Steelers and the NFL Draft.

@jimwexell Always 👊🏼

@GStartari And thanks for caring, Gino 👊 It’s just the self-importance of media and their predictions makes me 🤮

No one cares about media nerd predictions. But I’ll make mine anyway: Steelers trade up to 15 for WR Makai Lemon.
