TEAMS: Pittsburgh Steelers
The fifth round has always been somewhat of a crapshoot for the Steelers organization. It's produced stars like Mike Webster, Barry Foster, and Hardy Nickerson, as well as solid contibutors such as Lee Flowers, Jerame Tuman, and Clark Haggans. On the other hand, it's also given us forgettable names like Omar Jacobs, Tee Martin, and Charles Davis.This year, the Steelers had two picks in round five, the first one used on CB Joe Burnett, a 5'9", 192-pounder from Central Florida who was a first-team All-American last season. In fact, Burnett has a lengthy list of college accolades, including:First-team ESPN All-American (2008)First-team Sports Illustrated All-American (2008)First-team Conference USA All-Freshman (2005)3x First-team All-Conference USA (2005-2007)First-team CollegeFootballNews.com Freshman All-American (2005)First-team FWAA Freshman All-American (2005)First-team Rivals.com Freshman All-American (2005)Third-team Sporting News Freshman All-AmericaBurnett, a...

Pittsburgh Steelers 2009 NFL Draft Recap
Well the 2009 Draft has come and gone. Although it didn't go the way many expected I think the Steelers still had a good draft. Mizzou DT Ziggy Hood was the Steelers first pick and he will be a solid force up the middle for many years. He more than likely won't start this year but that'll give him time to develop. They also picked up OL Kraig Urbick from Wisconsin...
STEELERS EXTEND WARD
