I have written in recent years about how the hoopla about the NFL draft leaves me cold. Not being a potential pick at any time in my life takes that thrill away, and the Steelers haven't had the first pick in the draft since Terry Bradshaw. The last few drafts have led to frustration, and the reality is that drafts can't be successful until some date in the future.
Draft day is overrated.
Having said that, there are many angles that make the draft at least interesting. Who the Steelers do get is interesting. Which Pitt or Penn State players get drafted is interesting. Where some of the competition comes in on draft day is interesting. The kiss of death the Cincinnati Bengals puts on players is interesting.
