Then Why NOT have TWO Starting Offensive (ROOKIE) Linemen?   He & Guard David DeCastro are BOTH "First Round Blue-Chip" talent... Ben Roethlisberger will NOT be picking himself up off the Turf 45 Times this Season, as BOTH of these Young men are going to do ONE thing WELL, "Protect The FRANCHISE" - that is "Big Ben"!!   The Steelers "imposed" Stipulations on Mike Adams UNLIKE any other Draft Selection in the History of OUR Proud Franchise. As long as Mike adheres to those Stipulations & proves to The Coaches & Organization that he is OUR Best Option @ Left Tackle, MORE POWER to Him!   I expect, (as a 36-Year Season Ticket Holder), BIG THINGS from the revamped Offensive Line in the upcoming Season! Not ONLY Pass Protection, but some BIG Running Lanes for whoever is carrying the ball. Both Adams & DeCastro were EXCELLENT Run Blockers in their Collegiate careers, & I fully expect this to continue @ the Professional Level!   "Seventh Heaven" is but a Whisper away!!   Respectfully Submitted,   Michael S.
