Shamarko packs a few more pounds on his short frame than Troy or Ryan and seemed durable in college so he should hold up and with that low center of gravity and lightening speed should be able to deliver explosive hits to receivers and running backs. He should get playing time on special teams and likely as a backup to the often-injured Troy P.

The Steelers like their tall, fast CBs, so this isn’t surprising. Good pick.

He’s put up numbers, but the Big 12 isn’t known for defense outside of a few schools. The fact that he was removed from the redzone is very telling, and it’s not like Oklahoma’s coaches are stupid.

This guy doesn’t make it out of preseason. Waste of a pick. I could at least see the reasoning behind the Bell pick, but this was bad. It’s the 5th round, so I’m not going to rage too hard.

So far, I’ve loved every pick except Bell and Landry Jones.

Ultimately, I’m just not as high on Bell as you are. I would have preferred someone else there. The Steelers didn’t view this as a reach, as they make their board and stick with it. I just disagree with the view of the talent of Bell. I hope I’m wrong.
