Can we draft the University of Wisconsin OL as a whole?

people wanna blame our FO and coaching staff for neglecting the OL but nobody can really predict the barrage of injuries our linemen have suffered.

FWIW- i still wish pouncey coulda played in last years superbowl.

It is the FO fault, and they seem to be playing worse than last year before the injuries...maybe they draft better O linemen these dudes are coming off the bench....they most likely would still be Steelers since NO ONE else wants then

well except tony hills, the broncos signed him pretty quick right after we cut him

yeah, i'm still pissed that he was cut in favor of chris scott, who is worthless and ended up getting cut anyway

theyve been injured since day 1. this is their 5th OL line combination in 5th games, and really this unit is playing about the same as last years unit. the beat up unit with essex, one armed kemo and rookie gilbert looked pretty good in the 1st drive of the 2nd half of last week.

the line and our running game looked pretty damn good through the 1st 4 games of last season.

theres no doubt our line looks horrid and the complete failure of urbick and hills is beyond comprehension but theres also no denying they looked 10X better with ben out and arians being forced to call a more conventional, conservative, and logical game.

by the same token, a chimpanzee calling plays for a team with an excellent line like the texans, could make them look like shit.

This offensive line is filled with screen doors, too many holes and so easy to run through. Glad to see Starks back, bring back Flozell. It just seems so easy to sit out games this year, these guys the last two years would have played irregardless, even on crutches.

If that's possible then I'm all for it.

when we drafted kraig urbick out of wisconsin, he was regarded as one of the (if not THE) best guard prospects in the entire 09 draft.

but if you listen to the ignorant steelerfans, they will lead you to believe the steelers FO has done absolutely nothing to address the OL.

since 09 we have drated a top guard prospect, a top center prospect, signed the highest rated RT in free agency, and spent a 2nd round pick on a LT.

thos fans need to pull their heads out of their rectums.

Urbik sucks and always has sucked. Just like Frank Summers and Shipley.
