2009 Steeler Draft Class

#1 (32 overall) Ziggy Hood DT
The 6' 3" 300 pound, 22 year old out of Amarillo, TX (don't the Steelers have another guy on the defensive line from Texas?) did 34 bench reps and ran a 4.91 40. If you would have rather taken Max Unger (a filthy Hawaiian, who was picked 49th by the Seahawks) with this pick, well I don't think you and me are going to be friends.


#2 (79 overall) Kraig Urbik RT/G
6' 5" 328 pounds, 23 years old, 29 reps.
Great pick that will be a serious improvement over Marvel Smith and Kendall Simmons. I've been playing as Wisconsin a lot in NCAA for the last few years so I support him.

#3 (84 overall) Mike Wallace WR
I was extreamly skeptical of this pick until I learned that they drafted the 22 year old, 6'0", 4.28 40 running Mike Wallace from Mississippi and not the 90 year old, venerable, broadcasting Mike Wallace, or the 50 year old, NASCARing Mike Wallace.
Anyways, he ran a 4.28 40 and that should be the only thing you really need to know about him.

#4 (96 overall) Keenan Lewis CB
Chad Scott ruined 6' 1" 200 pound CB's for me. So I'm not high on Lewis and his 4.54 40 time.

#5 (168 overall) Joe Burnett CB
He's only 5' 9" with a 40 time (4.51) similar to Lewis', but for some reason I have a higer opinion of him than I do of Keenan Lewis.

#6 (169 overall) Frank Summers RB

#7 (205 overall) Ra'Shon Harris DT

#8 (226 overall) A.Q. Shipley C

#9 (241 overall) David Johnson TE
