00:00Nice pick. Typical Pittsburgh pick, right, in terms of what they want to do.

00:05Caleb Johnson, the running back from Iowa. Ground and pound type of back.

00:08Couldn't get it done in terms of Najee Harris to get another physical back.

00:12Offensive line better be up to par because Caleb Johnson, again, has great vision,

00:16but elite speed like some of the others.

00:18Trevion Henderson, Quinshawn Junkins, I just don't see it, Mike.

00:22So the Steelers pass on QB again.

00:24Obviously, they don't value any of these players all that greatly.

00:27And they go with Caleb Johnson. Troy Fauton, who the rookie last year,

00:32really did not participate in the season at all due to an injury.

00:36They had Broderick Jones as a first-round pick a couple of years ago.

00:39So we know this is how this team is going to operate.

00:41It is going to be ground and pound.

00:43They are obviously focused on Aaron Rodgers and adding a veteran quarterback.

00:48Do they do something in the trade market? I don't really see it.

00:51Cousins will be out there for a while, so the Falcons say.

00:55But Steelers going with Caleb Johnson.

00:57I really don't mind them adding a running back.

00:59But as you said, you start to wonder what the plan here is for them to get a face of the franchise.

01:07It's going to be a revolving door at QB.

01:09Yeah, and maybe it capped again at eight, nine wins.

01:12Yeah, so I think, unfortunately, that's the frustration,

01:15is that the nine wins don't really amount to much when you can't get a playoff win,

01:19even if you're at home.
