Steelers trade for CB Justin Gilbert

Postby Steelers76 » Sat Sep 03, 2016 3:23 pm

The Steelers have secured former Browns 1st Round pick of The 2014 Draft, Cornerback Justin Gilbert. In exchange, The Browns will get The Steelers 6th Round Pick in the 2018 Draft.


I like this move for 2 reasons; 1.) It gives much needed CB depth to a depleted position, and 2.) They didn't have to give up much to get him. Let's hope they don't let him rot on the bench like they did with Brandon Boykin last season, though.

Also, Gilbert is fast and can return kickoffs and punts as well, another area of need for this team.
