Being a Steeler fan is a blast!!!!!!! Nailed the draft again!!!!!!
And we’re not done!
Yeah
Yeah of course it's a blast when your a Steelers fan and get drafted by the steelers. Like our first round pick Lee and Wilson grew up watching us and said he molded his play to us not sure if he's a fan.
@@js-hk6xs Yeah we always draft guys thats Steelers fans
💯
Our weaknesses are becoming our strengths
NCState/Panthers fan here, treat Russ and Payton good, y’all got some great state alumni!
Now y’all wanna claim Russ after after amato 💩 on him
Coming from an NC State Alumni, we got ourselves a dawg. I wished this, and it somehow came to fruition .
Omar Khan is killing this draft, I wish I could fast forward to September!!
Yeah, I cant wait for another season of down to the wire games that take years off my life. Then to barely make the playoffs just to get kicked out of the first round. Gonna be epic.
@@AtomicShadow64 why are you so negative then go for another team if it's that miserable pain and simple
@@SLyle90 because that's how this works lol
Dudes a burner that loves to hit and highly intelligent
Damn what a beast we got
Yea, with NO ACL!
@@redman8767able steelers don't need their acls 😂
I believe TJ Watt is missing both since college and as you know he's a beast!
Hines had no acl in his right knee I think
@@SLyle90 bullshit about TJ.
Triv looking lil bloated😂😂
Payton Wilson is built like Jack Lambert was back in the day
Let’s go to Work STEELERS HERE WE GO!!!
This is great loaded rebuilt O line and we got the best linebacker in the draft and picked up a legit receiver to go along with Pickens lets go man
Reminds me of Shazier....the coverage and speed.....the tape is crazy.
I WAS WAITING FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO MAKE THIS COMPARISON
We just played 5-D chess and got the best LB in the draft.
In Khan we trust.
6’4” this Wilson is a Jack Lambert type LB but faster. Another great pick.👍
Right on . He’s my favorite player too, outside of maybe Ladd mconkey.cant wait to see him on game days.
My favorite for DROY
Defense Rookie of The Year 2025
Not unrealistic
I agree!
You know who really deserves an award and many times over is T.J. Watt defense player of the yr. He literally earned it last year going off of the stats I forgot the ridiculous reason they wouldn't give it to him
31 crazy teams and 1 smart team
I love the pick as long as they keep him on the outside because of his injury history. Covering tight ends, running backs and pressuring the quarterback should be his specialty.🎉🎉🎉
Khan hit the draft out the park
the Khan artist does it again!! things really looking up, stay healthy everybody
Kahn artist sounds a bit negative. That's just my opinion though lol
I see why you landed with that he's slick I'll call him "Kahnsistant Kahnstructive Kahn" he's building the Steelers up! "Kahnsistantly" He is so far ahead he's very intelligent and IMO one of the top best features he's patient
Pumped about this guy! Watt, highsmith, now queen and this dawg? Forget about it!
Pittsburgh is going to love Payton Wilson ! Steal of the draft by far . Steelers are the perfect team for this guy . You just get ready Steelers fans . My favorite NC State player maybe ever
Is that "I'm a Tar Heel Born" playing in the background?
I
Missi is one of the most knowledgeable journalists in the Steelers organization. I hope the national broadcasters don't find out and steel-er away.
Mike is also a great reporter and usually funny as hell especially for a Michigan dude ( yes, that is Buckeye Battle Cry in the background).
Steelers are unbelievably loaded at linebacker now!
i hope they bring Kwon back for some depth, if he heals up.
Last year showed we can always use a few more. How they pick up another LB.
@@markwakeley3835depth?
@@briana6181love Kwon, he played so good
We stole the best LB IN THE DRAFT
We already have J Warren and N Harris LBs alone 😮 STEELERS GOING ALL THE WAY THIS SEASON!
@@SLyle90what?
@@SLyle90lies!!!
Lies you funny has hell
So true!
2 yrs in row Omar ,Weidel,Tomlin,scouts,coaches great draft
I agree we have more needs but this guy is a beast if he can stay healthy could be dominant in the NFL good pick
So now pair him with TJ Watt... enough said 😂
@@SLyle90 Watt, highsmith, queen, now Wilson could spill doom for the NFL offenses they play against that's a scary LB core my God.
Heyward and Fitzpatrick amen bro!
Dang isn’t Pitt 3 hours ahead of time I’m on the west coast and saw this just uploaded
Khan is that dude this team is in good hands 🙌
He's a legend amen to that. Can't leave out Tomlin he's a great coach IMO
@@SLyle90He's done an amazing job so far but this is only his 2nd year and I'm not ready to go Legend yet.
Impressive draft! 🔥👌💪
😮👍me recuerda a Jack Ham 💪🖤PW💛
Kahn is legendary
Now our team is just about there we're going all the way i firmly believe that!
🖤💛💪🏾😁
Just need to draft a head coach!
@@AtomicShadow64 what do you have in that pipe!? Tomlin is right there with Kahn making these decisions. He's also a great coach idk/see why people are hating on him. He's doing what he has to do to go all of the way. #nuffsaid
My opinion of course.
@@SLyle90Agreed!
@@SLyle90 Ignore them. Probably one that didn't want him anyway.
We got ptsd from all our linebackers going out last year lol
Jack Lambert played at 6'4" 230
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hell Yeah!!! 👑 Khan, U’ keep doing it, getting better & better but I know U, do not do it alone, great draft to our front office this draft we puttin in the work, our linebacker group tuffer than steel, Steelers Nation, let’s work towards another Lombardi 🏆 I’m so excited 🤗 🏈
Highsmith Watt Queen Wilson …. Best linebacking crew in the NFL
We got three picks tomorrow, we need to go CB, DT, and then either safety or double up on another WR. I like the big dude from FSU but I wouldn't be opposed to doubling OL or DL.
Our draft addressed everything we needed so far and we can grab a great value CB in MJ Devonshire from Pitt( we in the Burgh know what a Dawg he is) and another WR or DT
Yes love Mj Devonshire by watching Pitt games
Imagine our linebackers : Alex Highsmith and T.J. Watt on the outside and Patrick Queen and Peyton Wilson on the inside
Patrick Queen was All Pro. T.l Watt All Pro
Now Peyton Wilson compared to The legend Luke Kuekly
Peyton Wilson All American Butkus Award Winner
Bro, it looks like TJ on the field
I said the same exact thing bro…
Our defense is amazing and offense is looking pretty damn good as well were not done yet!
Definitely saw some watt in Wilson’s tape wow! Lightning fast and range like lambert.holy mackerel our linebackers will be making splash plays galore . Plus minkah and deshon at safety. Wow what an incredible job Kahn and wiedel have done in a years time. We are back
Just hope he can stay healthy. If he does hes gonna be great
WELCOME TO STEELERS NATION GO STEELERS
Never thought the Steelers would get the opportunity to draft him, with all the other needs.
Easily the steal of the draft for Pittsburgh, and certainly in consideration for the entire draft overall.
Great pick
HereWeGo hurry up September
All he has to do is stay healthy these we might have the best LB DUO IN THE LEAFUE out of no where wow
I saw his combine. Then watched his tape. Told everyone I respected n played with n college n hs he was a dude I wanted but we wouldn’t get. Got him at 98!
I’d luv if Payton could stay healthy n ROCK 58
So it's been 2 years since his last injury and that is what they focus on?! These people need to stop with the BS! I mean the dude just won the Butkus award THIS YEAR but yeah 2 years ago! And it was only a shoulder! (I have had a torn labrum in my throwing arm(RH) for the last 25 years but yet will still cut loose in softball when needed and yeah it can hurt but so what! Pain is just the bodies way of saying You're still alive! 🤣) This kid is gonna be a steal!!! With the draft so far and If things go well there is a good shot at #7 !
Payton Wilson wrestled big time at Orange High in Hillsbourgh North Carolina. Peacock analyst had big chuckle over him and Frazier going at it on mat in locker room ,lol
I mean....let's be serious....Frazier would pin him in no time FLAT. WAY different weight classes.
If this man stays healthy, it’ll be beautiful.
Frank Gore SHREDDED his ACL TWICE in college. He went on to play 16 NFL seasons and has the 3rd most rushing yards in the history of the NFL. Do you know who else didn't have an ACL in his knee? Hines Ward.....that's who.
Brenden Rice would be a solid WR pick if he slips to the 6th round
Sweet, we picked Marcus Aurelius!
Sorry, I don't understand the reference.
Not many players haven't had some kind of injuries. Its part of the game
We needed a LB and dude is an athletic freak ACC defensive player of the year led the ACC in tackles had 18 tfl if it weren't for the injuries he would've went sooner
He really wasn't on my radar of needs or wants, but at pick 98, you can't go wrong.
Boooyyy Omar is the best gm I called every pick position perfect
Special team is going to be lit😢
What's the sad face for!? So happy ecstatic you cried? I'm lost here. 🤔
We going to be winning this year in going to be lit
Barring any serious injuries, I see the Steelers having a top 3 defense, #1 rushing offense, and a top 5 offense overall
He has to learn to take on blocks but otherwise hes a a menace out there.
Omar has been cooking!
Milwauker Brewer broadcasters mention Pitcher Wilson is his older brother
good pick didn’t really watch him but heard a dog
I like the giants and was hoping they would've drafted him in round 2
This is a steal. This guy would be a late first rounder most years if he didn't have the injuries.
Most of the DBs and DLs are practice squad guys right now. We will need to patch together CB2 and rotate what we have now behind Benton and Heyward. Next year's draft will start with DL and CB. We will take Cam Hart or Devonshire tomorrow.
We gotta bring Pat Pete back. Need a vet corner for sure. He met expectations last year so give him another chance.
@@krknife With Donta Jackson coming in, Pat Pete is not nearly as valuable to us as last year. If he came in cheaper, I would love to have him back. He is still productive and a solid CB2 rotation guy.
Pat P can't play corner anymore. He's better off as a safety at this point.
@@ryan8165 oh for sure, he is a good mentor though.
@@WordAte totally agree with you, I think he did say he was willing to take a pay cut.
Got this LB with pick for trading Kenny Clipboard 😊
Hines Ward had no a ACL he did okay 😂
I think he might weigh more than Lambert
That’s 3 wrestlers in last 2 drafts 🙌🏼
No....that's 3 wrestlers in THIS draft.......Logan Lee was a two time state champ as well.
Why ..they needed a LB as well
Depth and possibly replace Cole Holcomb.
He’s a one contract player. Too much damage under the hood.
Let me plant a seed.
Convert him into our starting Strong Safety.
Now I want everyone to imagine what that makes our defense look like.
I just hope the coaches will give it some thought.
Enough of "converting players"
Stop already. The guy spends 5 to 8 years to perfect his craft and you want his to throw it away and start over at a new position? You need to go sit down and keep quite.
Many of the all-time greats switched positions. Anyone who's ever actually played football knows it's very common.
Have you ever heard of John Lynch or Brian Dawkins? Both of them were originally LBs and I'd say they had no issues switching to Safety. Real football players go where ever they are needed and still thrive. Even our new Tackle Troy said he used to dream of being a ball carrier and was told early on that he was best suited for the line and now he loves it! Real players just want to be in the battle. Period.
Payton's is one of those what ever it takes to help the team types and with his elite speed, power and height he could become a force of nature along side Minkah. He already is dominant in the flat and he would give offenses nightmares in safety blitz situations, they would essentially have a 5 LB set! As a former backer I would LOVE IT!
But hey! We are all allowed to dream Have a great day and enjoy the final rounds!
HERE WE GO STEELERS!
HERE WE GO!💛🖤💛🖤
2 years in, seems like kevin colbert was the problem
We should trade up and steal TJ Tampa if the 4th round
Looks like mama might need to pack a little more weight on those bones. Skinny looking 230lbs. Course he knows what weight his peak performance is I'm sure. Do want to be strong enough to get off those guards.
Who would you say is the greatest linebacker in Steelers history???
@@gregd6706 I'm too young to have watched in real time the ham, Lambert, Russell days. Full games do exist on RUclips and I have checked some of them out. I grew up as a kid watching mike singletary and all them since. Far as I'm concerned TJ watt is the best 'linebacker' I have ever watched. He would be even more dominant if he was used in some traditional outside linebacker roles. Because his instincts are that good.
@@inGodweTrust122 The correct answer is Jack Lambert.....he was 6'4" and 220 lbs. One of the greatest linebackers in the history of the NFL.
Good gamble for a one contract player
Basically a Ryan Shazier clone
This is the first shock to me. A LB over a CB or D-lineman?
This pick was a steal
They most likely drafted him just in case Cole Holcomb isn’t ready yet from his ACL injury.
Our linebacker problem literally lost us three games last year
He could probably play safety😂😂
Best player on the board by far with a aging LB core it makes sense
Is he going to wear shorts with the Steelers?
NO. Crazy that he is so fearless and ferocious after the acl's. I am a fan. But I doubt very seriously the Steelers will allow that. From no Shazier type to two. Look out AFC.
Those shorts actually look really comfortable.
They took a freak.and it is a little shocking thought they would go d line.i worry about those long limbs being vulnerable.would love to see him get a helmet but may end up a practice squad guy.
practice squad? the guy was the best defensive player in college football and a day 2 pick he isnt going to be on the damn practice squad, he will likely win a starting job.
Smh 🤦♂️
He's small no?? A little concerning
hes 6'4?
@loganb7081 not what I'm saying
(Fucker looks like a CB)
235 lbs
Homie isn’t small 😂😂😂
Jesus christ guys!!!
He's lean not beefy called me old fashioned..after Shazier and Little bush wanted a tank
Missys energy seemed a lil weird towards Mike
We need Dick Lebeau for this defense No Cap!!!!
Wasted pick. Too skinny. He will not last 4 years in the nfl. Looks like a back-up to me.
Character may be there. Not sure if his knee(s) will be there if the rumor about him playing without an ACL is true. I'm not drinking all the Kool-aid folks. NFL is a lot more punishing than college. I agree with the first two picks though. Smash mouth football. I hope the team isn't behind by 14 points to the Kansas City, Miami, and Houston.
Frank Gore SHREDDED his ACL TWICE in college. He went on to play 16 NFL seasons and has the 3rd most rushing yards in the history of the NFL. Do you know who else didn't have an ACL in his knee? Hines Ward.....that's who.
Absolutely the steal of the draft. This guy does everything at a very high level AND he has the right attitude. If this dude stays healthy, he is going to be a bigtime difference maker. Another great draft of high character high quality players. Great job Kahn man.
Hopefully he stays heathy cause if he does he will be one of the best ILB in the league within 2 years.
Looks like nice pic but everybody is so excited for next year BUT WE DOWNGRADED AT QB WILSON AND FIELDS ARNT TAKIN US NO WHERE
What are you smoking? Where do you get it?
@JJ-52 both qbs are 31 and 59 as starters combined last 3 years what are you smokin we didn't upgrade at all we had 2 good qbs we just let go for a almost 40 year old qb and fields not a winnin qb picket 15 and 11 as a starter not bad at all considering he was hurt most of the time and a horrible offensive line last 2 years
@James-bq2gp Wilson has 6500+ yards, 42 TD, and 19 INT in the last 2 years. You don't think that's better than Pickett? He is 35 years old, not almost 40. He has 16 ganes of post-season experience, including Super Bowls.
I agree he was a great qb at one time the last 5 years been declining and no at this point he is not better then picket picket is developing only 25 years old set all records at pitt surpassing dan marinos record I never would got rid of him already for wilson and fields you all will see next year when we win only 7 or 8 games if that
@@James-bq2gp they were going to let him compete with Wilson, then he wanted to leave. They didn't release him for Wilson and Fields.
Still have Russell Wilson, Justin Feilds, and Mike Tomlin. This will be a train wreck.
Hey look! A tomlin hater! ☝️
Can’t wait for you to eat your words my guy lmao
@@drew.benge. blah blah blah
@@drew.benge. been right for seven years now.....
You live a sad, pathetic life. Don't you dare celebrate this team's success this year. Don't you DARE. You own that you said this team is a failure. You're not a true Steelers fan.
