Alright-- the draft is done.  Lots of us following the draft on the message boards had lots of favorites who went undrafted.

Who would you like to see the Steelers sign in free agency?

Here are some of the guys who went undrafted but who might fit the Steelers--

Offensive Line:
C/OG Fernando Velasco from Georgia
C Doug Legursky from Marshall
OG Samson Satele from Hawaii
OT Drew Radovich from USC
OG Chris McDuffie from Clemson
C/OG Derrick Morse from Miami (Fl.)
OL Carnell Stewart from LSU

Running back-- I know it's not a need but I like this guy:
RB Jerome Messam from Graceland (Iowa)

Receivers:
WR Maurice Purify from Nebraska
WR Edward Williams from Lane (Tenn.)
WR Jabari Arthur from Akron

Defensive Line:
DE Marcus Dixon from Hampton (though he comes with baggage)
DE Keilen Dykes from West Virginia (I can't believe he's still here)
NT Ogemdi Nwagbuo from Michigan State
NT Joshua Thompson from Auburn
NT Henry Smith from Texas A&M
DE Jacob Owens from Fairmont St. (W. Va.)
DE Bryan Mattison (a favorite of a couple posters on here, but as the son of the Ravens' defensive line coach, he is likely to sign with them)

Linebacker:
OLB Curtis Gatewood from Vanderbilt (a productive pass-rush specialist)
ILM Gary Guyton from Georgia Tech
LB Lamar Myles from Louisville (tackling machine and special teams standout-- probably would project inside in the 3-4)

Defensive Backs:
DB Michael Grant from Arkansas
CB Bobbie Williams from Bethune-Cookman

Sorry-- under Offensive Line, that should be OG HERCULES Satele, not Samson Satele.  Samson is already in the league.  Hercules is his younger brother.

I can see them looking at Legursky. He wasn't too bad as a player and I think that with him playing center, this will draw some attention. And we never know, he could be our future C after Hartwig.  They may also look at Dykes or Dixon. We didn't answer this position of need in the draft. And this could be a benefit for us. This could be the depth that we need.

dykes, clermond from pitt, adrius bowman as a reciever and a running back like ben jarvus-green or jehuu celchuck, I would have said urrutia would be perfect but the damn ben gals got him

I know.  I hated that Urrutia went so late.  Two of my favorites were Mario Urrutia and OG Mackenzy Bernadeau.  They both went in the last few picks of the draft.

I do like C Legursky and DE Dykes.  DE Dixon is a character risk, but as a free agent the cost wouldn't be high.  I also would love to see them at least grab a Nose Tackle and several are available.  I was surprised Drew Radovich slid all the way through the draft.

Ben Moffit a hundred times over. This guy has everything it takes to be a Special Teams standout.

Missed the DB's.

I liked Darnell Terrell out of Misouri and Bobbie Williams out of Bethune-Cookman.
