The Steelers play a 3-4 defense. Cowher insists on it,
actually. Doesn't that mean that more than one-third of the starting
defense is comprised of linebackers? You wouldn't know it by the
way they draft… Since 2000, the Steelers have selected six linebackers
in seven drafts. What's more, the only two taken before the fourth
round -- second-rounders Kendrell Bell and Alonzo Jackson -- are
no longer with the team. By Jerry DiPaola

to evaluate potential athletes’ talent… But when an NFL team looks
for prospects should they be paying more attention to an athlete’s
character? By Shannon Boyle
