Steelers Flashback Friday: Lessons To Be Learned From Drafting Of Roethlisberger?

This past week the Pittsburgh Steelers posted a video of quarterback Ben Roethlisberger being selected in the first-round of the 2004 NFL Draft and it brought back a lot of memories.

For starters, I remember we had just built a new house and moved into it and in fact, my home office floor still needed to be finished due to us changing our mind the last minute that we wanted carpet in there. I remember watching the 2004 NFL Draft in that room while unpacking boxes and when then-commissioner Paul Tagliabue announced that the Steelers had selected Roethlisberger with the 11th overall pick in the first-round.
