Jury is still out right now....
How about a reliable young BIG short-yardage running back instead, so that 3rd and short does not have to be a passing down? I'm not talking all-world ability here, just size and strength plus an ability to hold onto the ball. A poor man's Mike Alstott or a better Heath Evans?
I have no ******* clue why we let Big Heath go.
I have a better question, why can't we draft a pass rushing OLB or DE.
I believe both Pierre Garcon and Austin Collie went undrafted.
Or we simply could have kept Stallworth or Gaffney?I think Tate will be great for us in the long run, and I'm not unhappy with the pick.
But the guy I was hyping all last offseason as a 3rd-4th round WR was Mike Wallace, who Pittsburgh took #84 one pick after Tate. Through 9 gaves he has 26 receptions for 454 yards (17.4 average), and has been huge for Pittsburgh in the clutch. It would have been great to have that kind of 3rd WR option this year.
