And the pick was

I just finished up doing a draft on the radio with Adam Caplan of the NFL Network on Sirius Radio.

Interestingly enough, running back LenDale White of USC was still available, as was DeAngelo Williams of Memphis. If that's the case, the Steelers could get some interest from teams wanting to trade up.

But the Steelers like White and would consider trading up to get him or Donte Whitner.

If White fell to 32, they would be ecstatic.

You could then expect the team to trade up in Round 2 to grab a safety, either Daniel Bullocks or Darnell Bing. That would be an awesome first day for the defending Super Bowl champions.
