Would you draft a Steeler in the First Two Rounds

After I had wrapped it up for the day yesterday, official news broke that Santonio Holmes has been suspended for 4 regular season games to start the season. Holmes while still a good pickup, is now dropping hard in my projections due to this. It was also announced today the Ben Roethlisberger is on his way into a meeting with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell to determine his fate regarding the rape charges that were alleged in the off-season (the second time he has been accused of this in his career). I personally don't think Big Ben makes it out of this without a suspension which would mean that there is not a Steelers player that I would draft in the first two rounds save maybe Rashard Mendenhall. If you are looking for alternatives to the usual Steelers players that are drafted high look at McNabb who should have a good year in Washington, and also look at Mark Sanchez who's production should improve next year. If you are in one of those leagues that you won't draft a QB until rd 4 you should look into Anquan Boldin who is still one of the bigger pick ups of the off-season for the Ravens despite him flying under the radar. Also look for Percy Harvin to step his game up into the early rounds.
