The Steelers were talking about Brandon Albert (when no one else was)... and the Chiefs took him. This doesn't bug me because Albert got taken (he was average); it bugs me, because if the Steelers had gone Albert in R1, they probably go Ray Rice in R2 (instead of Spinny & Sweed).
Lastly, Tomlin fell in love with a local CB... and those stinking NYJets traded up & stole him away.
