Found this interesting: LINK

quote:

According to Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin, it boils down to Shazier playing at Ohio State. The Steelers’ connection to Ohio State is like the Ravens’ association to Alabama through General Manager Ozzie Newsome. Longtime Steelers Defensive Coordinator Dick LeBeau is a former Buckeye, so the Steelers have close ties with Ohio State’s program, specifically on defense.


Thoughts?

They probably wish they hadn't. At the same time, they know way more about football than I.

I don't really see a problem with it, Shazier was a white hot prospect coming off a great season and combine. I'm sure his measurables, however overrated those generally are, played a bigger factor than where he was from.

He's banged up while Mosley is on his way to DROY, so it magnifies the problem.

My thoughts is it's about like not picking the best candidate for the job because the employer is racist.

AKA: Steelers screwed themselves and I'm 100% fine with that. That's what happens when you are stupid.
