The term "steal" gets thrown around often, but landing the fiery, ultra-competitive Will Howard, by way of Kansas State and Ohio State, could end up being exactly that for the Steelers. While most draft talk centers around skill positions, it's worth noting that impact players can also emerge from less spotlighted roles, whether it's a dominant lineman or a second-level linebacker. In Cleveland, Sanders is stepping into a crowded, highly competitive situation. As for Howard, he’s especially intriguing. The Steelers had other priorities on draft day, and even ESPN barely mentioned him, which makes his selection all the more interesting. Never was he discussed as being some NOW option, but he's a big strong kid with great support & could be the QB of the future in the Burgh, that would be a steal. Otherwise, a Rookie RB could emerge like last year in Tampa Bay.
Many people begin by simply exploring something new like our O-D Nation page & that's AOK! For those who just take a look, here’s an important takeaway: success at wide receiver often comes down to footwork and agility. Some of the most renowned receivers weren’t the fastest, but they excelled by running precise routes with exceptional footwork and an elite ability to change direction. They leveraged body lean and positioning to create separation, and could shift their weight with control and precision to break in or out of routes. If you’ve got reliable hands and commit to mastering footwork, you’re well on your way to finding success as a wideout. Final bonus tip: Perimeter blocking! Master it, take pride in it, and you WILL stand out to recruiters! Guaranteed! Best of luck!
It's great to emulate someone's work ethic and drive, but always stay true to who you are. Make that work for you. Don't try to be something you're not :) A lot of people share similar traits, and that's great! As a coach, I'd always remind guys to just be yourself. Whatever your personality or attitude, remember people are watching and forming opinions; you can help control your image, so make it count.👍
