In keeping with somewhat unique names (Bubby, Bam, Fuamatu-Ma'afala) The Steelers drafted Ziggy Hood, a DT from Mizzou as their first round pick. I was wondering if you know anything about this young man and how he might contribute to the Steelers defense in the future? He Finished the Combine near the top of nearly every category for a defensive tackle and looks like an elite talent on paper. Some say all the hype could lead to disappointment?

J.R.'s Answer:

Hood played at Mizzou and was an excellent DT who I saw play in person several times. He's a tough, active down lineman. 6-Burg did well in getting Ziggy.
