It's Friday, and we're going to take a lot of your calls on this show because a lot of you have had questions.

0:07.9

But I want to talk about why I've been so gung-ho about trading up and getting one of these top three wide receivers in this draft class and why it's a lesson and sort of a referendum on how the Steelers have missed it, wide receiver in recent years.

As this before, we're going to get to a lot of your calls today, but because you guys have been piling them up, and we're going to try to do that more consistently on this show, getting more of you guys' thoughts in. I'm still powering through whatever this cold fluid it is, but we're getting through it. But I wanted to talk about why I think it's so important to be going out to Y receiver early.
