Welcome to the Terrible Take Good Daily segment telling Steelers Nation what's on our mind.

0:04.8

I'm Ross McCorkel.

Tracking the Pittsburgh Steelers combine formal meetings isn't a perfect science, but you can take away some broad ideas about what they might do in the draft that Steelers have 12 picks to work with.

0:22.1

And so really anything feels like it could be on the table. But one thing stuck out to me in particular. The offensive

0:28.6

line did not receive that much attention from the Steelers in the way of formal meetings. We only

0:35.2

had them down for meeting with two players, one informal and one formal.

0:40.9

The informal with Notre Dame, Guard, Billy Shruff, and the formal with Arizona State,

0:47.9

tackle, Max Ihonachur. There may have been one or two others, but many of the top names who I spoke to said they did not meet with the Steelers.

0:57.1

That includes Guard Keelan Rutledge. That includes Guard Yawane Venga.

Billy Shroff would be a decent mid-round developmental guy to potentially start one day, but he's not somebody you're going to draft to plug in play right away, I don't

1:33.9

Are we collectively right now overvaluing the Steelers' desire to get a guard in the draft and undervaluing the potential for a tackle to be added?

1:38.4

Roger Jones had spinal fusion surgery.

1:40.9

Dylan Cook, while, you know, he had a few good games there at the end of the season

1:44.4

filling in, is relatively unknown, and they need a left tackle long term. They've been

1:52.6

building through the trenches, so would it really be a surprise if they kept building through

1:56.3

the trenches? I don't know. I don't think we should write that possibility off. Be sure to follow us at Steelersdepo.com
