How you doing?
Good.
What's going on, man?
Thanks, Paul.
I mean, that's been a big downfall for the Steelers, no doubt.
And we just discussed with Seattle how they put together the defense.
They've hit on a lot of their draft picks and those draft picks have been defensive linemen or people like Witherspoon in the secondary who you can make big plays and schemed up to be an outstanding playmaking kind of defensive back.
And yes, they do have Derek Harmon, and yes, Y.A.
Black is sort of a project, but they can get more out of him, but they still need more.
I do agree with that.
You cannot have teams run the ball down your throat and expect to, you know, number one win games, get off the field, and hope your offense can make up for a deficit you've created by giving them points defensively.
So I do think that's important.
I don't think it's as important as wide receiver, though.
Even though Seattle has drafted well on the defensive line and offensive line, too, over the course of the last five years, they got playmakers in the first round, too.
Jackson Smith and Jigma is the offensive player of the year in the NFL.
So you didn't expect that maybe when you drafted him.
You didn't expect...
Kenneth Walker to be a guy who was going to be a Super Bowl MVP when you drafted him.
All of these things have got to make sense.
If you're going to draft a wide receiver in this round, in the first round this year, number 21, I would expect him to not only play, to become an 88 catch guy in the very first year.
