Most fair weather fans are quick to make the comment that Thursday and Friday, the first three rounds of the draft, are the most important days of the draft, and the only selections that truly matter. For a moment let’s say that were true, and let it be known that since the inception of the Mike Tomlin era only 14 of the 27 athletes drafted in the first three rounds dating back to 2007 remain on the team.
Duds such as Limas Sweed, Bruce Davis, Curtis Brown, and Dri Archer stand as examples of the Steelers selecting absolute flops during the draft selection process.
