OK kids, we will start our chat in about 15 min so get ready....
10:02
We had a brief hiccup with the site, but all good now so lets get started....

Gerry: I hope you enjoyed the Masters.  It seems like many analysts and fans hope that we trade Pickens for a 2nd or even a 3rd round pick so that we can draft an extra DL.  Won't this just create a huge need for another WR2 and does it make any sense to sign Rodgers and not surround him with a top WR corps?
Gerry Dulac
10:02
That's precisely why they're not trading him now. Defeats the purpose of adding Metcalf

Gerry, what do you think of my opinion here?: The Steelers don’t want a pocket QB like Pickett or Rudolph, rather a “dual threat” QB for today’s NFL. Therefore, they will draft Jalen Milroe in the first round, because he could be gone by their third round selection.
Gerry Dulac
10:03
Well, I think it's your opinion Bill. It's not based in fact or even wishful thinking, but it's your opinion.

Gerry: some fans have been down on Tomlin for a while, but he seemed to still have a lot of support in the local media and fan base until this last 5 game stretch.  Have you ever seen a sports figure lose so much popularity in such a short time absent an off field scandal?
Gerry Dulac
10:04
I don't think it's been a short time

Hi Gerry, thanks for the chat. Been watching drafts for years...every team has hits and misses. How much of drafting is an art and how much is science?
Gerry Dulac
10:05
The science is the amount of time and prep that goes into building a draft board. As for art? I'd call it more luck.

Do you think the Steelers and tomlin are really that in love with shedeur sanders? Enough so that they would trade away multiple picks from both this year and next years draft to jump into the top ten to take him? Or is it more likely they’d consider him if he dropped to 21?
Gerry Dulac
10:05
Not happening
Mike in Virginia
10:05
Gerry, what top player in another position would have to fall to 21 for you to seriously consider taking him over one of the top 4 DLs?
Gerry Dulac
10:06
Maybe Travis Hunter. Abdul Carter. But those aren't happening so no sense wondering
Chris Jackson
10:06
Whats the likelyhood the Steelers trade up to draft Shedeur?
Gerry Dulac
10:06
Zip

Is there really such thing as a “quarterback competition” in a “quarterback room”? Wouldn’t you agree that today the QB1 is always pre-determined?
Gerry Dulac
10:07
Yes I do

I find it interesting that often people are quick to say Herbig can easily replace Watt or Highsmith. Yes he is a good player that makes splash plays. But have that not been to a game so see the size difference or difference in the run game?
Gerry Dulac
10:07
Obviously you have because you are correct
Justin from CBUS

Hey Gerry....behind the scenes, is there any chatter of a draft day George Pickens trade to get back into the second round?  Obviously the need to draft a receiver would be high, but Egbuka and DK would be mighty enticing.
Gerry Dulac
10:08
I really really like Egbuka and think he would be a perfect match as a No. 2, whether it was with Pickens or now Metcalf. But, best I can tell, there is no chatter about trading Pickens...now.

Good afternoon from Italy, Gerry. Any changes in NFL rules you’d like to see in the future?
Gerry Dulac
10:09
Ciao FWN.....yeah, get rid of that kickoff setup
Paul

Instead of all the repeat questions that you receive, here is a debate question. In their prime who do you want on your team, Rank who you wantT.J. Watt or James Harrison?
Gerry Dulac
10:10
I'll take JH in his prime...he was all over the field, not just in the backfield
Just Sayin
10:10
On a scale of 1-10 how sick and tired are you of draft and Aaron Rodgers questions? Here is something different; Do you think Art2 would ever consider switching to the 74 uniforms full time? He has to see how much better they look right?
Gerry Dulac
10:10
Can I use 11?
John cash
10:10
Do you think that Rodgers has a secret deal done with Pitt? And if so do you think he announces this week?
Gerry Dulac
10:11
He does not. The Steelers have a good feeling about him signing and they've had an offer on the table for a long time now. If you want to call that secret, go ahead
Jim Hester
10:11
Have you heard anything about Walter Nolen in regards to the Steelers possibly picking him with their 1st round pick? Do they like him?
Gerry Dulac
10:11
They like him a lot!
Ronztheman

If you think that franchise QB falls to you in this draft you take him. Agree?  Unfortunately, I think they do think one exists, will select, and will be wrong again.
Gerry Dulac
10:12
In this case, I think you are wrong.

Hi Gerry, if AR doesnt sign, does that leave money on the table that we can use to invest in TJ or others.  I really dont think AR is worth anything that would hinder our ability to resign REAL steelers.
Gerry Dulac
10:13
What they are offering Rodgers and what they will pay TJ are miles apart. I don't think a Rodgers signing has anything to do with what they will do with TJ
Linebacker Lounge
10:13
With all the RB visits are they looking for RB1 or RB2 and Warren is RB1? As of today, you would thing Round 3-4 will be the selection… How do you see this going?
Gerry Dulac
10:14
I'm not sure they view Warren as No. 1 or 1A. That will depend who they will draft. I will tell you this -- RB is right behind DL in the way they will approach the draft
Fort Wayne Nater
10:14
whats more valuable to the Steelers this coming year, a RB early in the draft or an OT early as security just in case Jones doesn’t pan out or Troy F gets hurt again?
Gerry Dulac
10:15
OT is so far down the list you will need GPA to find them
