I want Pead to be successful in the pros but please don't go to the Steelers!
I hope the Bengals pick him up.

Having no allegiance to the Bengals, I just want him to go somewhere that has a winning tradition and where he can be successful.

If I could watch him every week in Pittsburgh, I would be a happy, happy man. I enjoyed having Andre Frazier here in Pittsburgh for a bit, and he was even kind enough to come visit my son's football team to do a pep-talk.

I think Pittsburgh would be a great fit for him. They have made a number of average running backs look really good, so Pead should be dynamic. Plus we could at least see him twice a year!

Yea, this mock draft has him going in the third round to the Squealers.

http://draftbreakdown.com/three-round-mock-draft/5

As much as I want Pead to do well at the next level I will be torn rooting for him and rooting against Rapelisberger. If only Ben suffered a career ending injury or got traded or booted from the league.

For what it's worth, the creator of this website discussed the Bengals need for an RB on Bengals.com although there is some debate whether Pead's style is not complimentary to existing RB Bernard Scott.

Default Jets Draft Spotlight: Isaiah Pead

Jets Draft Spotlight: Isaiah Pead

Sounds like the Steelers aren't the only team interested in Isaiah:

Another guy that the Jets have shown interest in is a running back projected as a late second or early third round pick. The team met with him at the Senior Bowl, as reported by Jake Steinberg. Spotlight, RB Isaiah Pead, University of Cincinatti.

It's nice to know that people still don't know how to spell "CINCINNATI"
