Woodley leads NFL's list of emerging players Quote: As evidenced by his standout play in consecutive prime-time games, Pittsburgh outside linebacker LaMarr Woodley is enjoying a breakout season in 2008. Not that any of this surprises his defensive coordinator. "The first day that we had him at practice, the tight end took off on a deep route and LaMarr jumped up and knocked the ball away...

These are the three linemen available to the Steelers in the first two rounds (with no trade up or trade downs). Which one of these would be worthy of a 1st round pick? Would you take one of them at #23 or Rashard Mendenhall? I see all of these posts about the OL and we all know there were attempts to make a move to get a quality lineman, but no QUALITY lineman was available. I know I have found ...

The reason is his toughness. He showed that off last Sunday night against the Jaguars. Even without any practice time, he was sensational on a sore shoulder.

Since before the 2007 season I've been expecting Pittsburgh to spread out the offense a bit and take advantage of the weapons that they have. I would have assumed, 4-5 receivers, shotgun and Willie Parker in the backfield. Spread the defense, throw some passes and get Willie 'in space' when we do run. Make sense? I mean, you have one of the fastest guys on the field in your backfield, why not...
