I wonder what the Steelers are getting in return. A perfect marriage for Oakland.

you do know that ben is suspended for 4-6 games.
I have ties to media in Pittsburgh. The deal from what I hear is this Steelers send Ben and 1rd pick to Oak for 1rd pick and Asomugha.

Raider fans better be thanking their lucky stars if that deal goes through. Getting a 2 time Super Bowl winner in his prime, suspension be damned, is a absolute steal for any type of player.
Although Asomugha is PHENOMENAL, he can be replaced

This is all smoke blown by Pitt to scare Ben straight. Noway in hell do they ship the most successful QB since Terry away, bc he likes to touch a titty or two.

I'm not sure about this. Dude started with the "what I heard" bs and that it was not from a Steeler official.
I'm not familiar with him so maybe a Pitt fan should shim in on dude's credibility.
I'll wait to hear from a Schefter, Mort, Clayton Etc.

I still don't believe he is moved, fans just still working off emotions since this all just went down, but if they do lose him a top pick and top CB would be the way to do it

Interesting part is Raiders and Bills would have seemed no brainers. And they're not interested.

Ben ain't going no where. How you trade a QB that's won your team 2 Superbowls in 6 seasons just because of an "alleged" off-field incident.
Trading him to the Raiders at that

I find it comical that the Raiders have gotten to the point where they are ALWAYS rumored to be the team that takes another teams garbage. (Not calling big Ben garbage ) The Raiders are like the last man at a gangbang.

Here is a little bit of what I think:
Bradford will be good...when he isn't hurt...low Return on Investment (ROI).
Suh is a great 10+ year investment and also shows high character. Remember, high character is important when you are investing 10 years time and 10 years pay into a player.
Gerald McCoy is a great addition to any team. He, like Suh, has high character and should be welcomed with open arms.
Clausen is a bust. Golden Tate is a nice addition to any passing game.
Berry is a playmaker and a good investment. Eric Berry and Earl Thomas are the two best safties. Taylor Mays can hit but lacks cover skills and should be drafted with the idea of moving him to linebacker rather than keeping him at safety.
Tim Hiller and John Skelton are dark horse picks which could pay amazing ROI given good coaching and time to blossom.
Trindon Holliday is a great weapon because he can be used for kick off and punt returns. Somebody will add an instant weapon with him and see instant ROI.
I like Kyle Wilson at corner.
The draft is stock piled with offensive tackles. I would be happy with either Russell Okung, Bruce Campbell or Anthony Davis. I also like Brian Bulaga but I do think he will struggle if he does not work on defending the speed/spinning/finesse rushers.
I like Brandon LaFell and Demaryius Thomas at WR. I've studied tape of LaFell burning Joe Haden and keep in mind Thomas can run block on the outside which can spring running backs and set up play action bombs.
Ben Tate reminds me a lot of Shonn Greene. I think somebody will get a quality back by drafting him and a high ROI.
I like Jermaine Gresham at tight end, but expect injuries to come with the pick. I look at Dorin Dickerson as pretty much a receiver rather than a tight end but he can make nice catches and move the chains. DJ Williams fits this mold too and can run with the ball after the catch. Dennis Pitta is the definition of a route running tight end with sure hands...and he can do a little run after the catch too.
C.J. Spiller is fast...I know everyone in the NFL is fast, but he has another gear and he can catch the ball out of the back field or out in front of the field on routes. Speed backs don't have a long shelf life in the NFL so pick him up if you think you have an instant shot at contending.
Mike Iupati and Mitch Petrus aren't sexy picks but once they polish their game they should be a solid investment in the interior o-line.
I could go on but... that's it for now.
