FC: and sorry if I missed this but James Conner is now an Arizona Cardinal.

[BBrown]

Hope he does well and can stay healthy for them.
But holy cow the Steeler RB room is a very, very scary place. Snell, MacFarland, Ballage, and Edmunds. Yuck.
So I guess we know what will be drafted first by The Steelers, question is who will be available? As much as I like the Clemson RB I don't think he's a good fit for them.

Just wanted to comment on how un-newsworthy this was. This is only the second mention I've seen.

I don't want to spread too much negativity, so I don't have anything to say about conner or the Steelers.

Based on their history, that means the Steelers will take another LB.

Given their history of drafting running backs in the first round, that is probably a good thing! Steeler 1st round RB picks going back 70+ years:

Good news for Steelers fans. Connor was next to useless. Slow as a slug and fragile. Usually hurt. The Steelers are much better off without him. They know that since they made no effort to sign him.

Thoughts on Trey Sermon in the 3rd if Harris and Williams aren't available?

I’m glad Conner is anything but a Steeler.
