#Eagles GM Howie Roseman on trading up to draft USC WR Makai Lemon at No. 20 overall (right in front of the Steelers):
“We didn’t want to sit on our hands.”

It was mindful of the time the Cowboys were on the phone w Ryan Shazier when the Steelers called and drafted Shazier. Cowboys were not happy, just like the Steelers.

WR Makai Lemon said he was on the phone with the Steelers when the Eagles called and selected him at no. 20.

Develop him into “an NFL caliber player” HE WAS A FIRST ROUNDER! He should already be one! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Steelers select Arizona State tackle Max Iheanachor. He's a native of Nigeria and played soccer and basketball growing up. Still very new to football. Trusting new OL coach James Campen to develop him into an NFL-caliber player.

Alright, here's part of my opinion -- I think even if you like Iheanachor the player (I think there's a lot to like), I don't like the process of sitting on your hands if Lemon was your guy like it appears to be. A top player falls, WR teams lurking. You knew that was possible.

Nothing starts a rebuild like a developmental player with the 21st overall pick who has barely played football!
Hope the kid does great but you’re setting him up for failure already.
Oh btw they were on the phone with lemon and botched it completely with 12 picks.

Fans begged for Tomlin to be gone and to have a rebuild. Yet when both things are happening, they’re crying, throwing fits and mad. You can never win with this fanbase 😂😂

Steelers fielded opportunities to move up or back but really wanted Max Iheanachor

Plan A was to draft a QB. Clearly, that plan failed, though little fault of the #Steelers.
Plan B was to draft a wide receiver -- a sensible pivot -- and when Makai Lemon looked to be falling they planned to draft him.
That plan failed when the Eagles sniped them, and the Steelers were at least somewhat to blame.
Then, they seemed to run out of plans. And that's unexcusable.

It’s been well documented that the Steelers stocked up on draft picks this year in case they needed to move up.
And, when given the chance to get the guy they wanted, Khan seemingly sat on his hands while the team across the state got aggressive and jumped them.
Brutal.

Time will tell how each pick plays out but getting jumped when you have a dozen picks in the draft is...not great!

The Cowboys wanted Caleb Downs. Saw Caleb Downs actually falling. Didn’t risk it, and swapped 1sts & sent 2 5s. Got their guy. Steelers wanted Makai Lemon. Makai Lemon falls. Steelers sat in their cuck chair hoping to get their guy just to do what cucks do…get cucked.
