This years NFL Draft is
officially over, and The
Steelers seem to be in
pretty good shape
heading in to the
2016-2017 Season.
The main focus: defense.
The Steelers defense had
a rough season. The best
approach to take was to
fix it, and fix it they did.
Artie Burns, a
cornerback from Miami,
was the teams first rounder. While the original spot was
supposed to be filled by William Jackson III, Burns offers
just as many admirable attributes. With his incredible
play making ability, he seems to be an acceptable choice
for the Steelers.
Along with Burns came Sean Davis (S), Javon Hargrave
(DT), Travis Feeney (OLB), and Tyler Matakevich (ILB)
round up the defensive players drafted by the Pittsburgh
Steelers. Jerald Hawkins (OT) and Demarcus Ayers (WR)
are the only two offensive players that the Steelers picked
up this season, a decision made for the better.
We feel pretty good about the candidates we drafted,
Kevin Colbert, the teams general manager, said. Now,
we just have to see who is who and how much they
contribute.
This season will be primarily focused around defensive
improvement, as the draft shows. The Steelers had an
okay season last year, but if they even want to consider
the SuperBowl this year, it is important to fix the
previous errors of the defense and offense alike.
The team seems to have gained three new defensive
starters, possibly giving them a reasonable chance of
making playoffs once again this upcoming season. As
long as the proper work is put in from coaches and
players alike, the 2016-2017 NFL season looks bright for
the Pittsburgh Steelers.

What is a concussion?
According to emedicinehealth.com, a
concussion is an injury caused by an
impact to the head. This can also be
caused by violent shaking, spinning,
or a blow to the head. While it is not
regarded as a life-threatening injury,
new research is discovering more and
more about both the long term and
short terms effects.
If you or anybody you know
experiences an impact to the head
and has symptoms afterwards,
including a headache, dizziness,
slurred speech, and nausea, contact
your doctor immediately.

How to Make It through the Glory Years
Being a teenager is not an easy task: the constant fear over the future, struggle to keep high grades
and a social life, and the management of a healthy sleep schedule. If only it was easy, right? But it is
not. Scientist have discovered that modern teenagers have stress levels that match 1950s Asylum
Patients! Have no fear, though, because there is a solution to dealing with all of this stress.
If you think that you are constantly stressed, it is perfectly normal. Everybody has thought that at
least once in their lives, especially through the high school years. You need to find something
positive in your life, something that calms you down and distracts you from all of the emotional and
mental turmoil you might be going through. When you find yourself panicking, take a step back and
find your happy place. It sounds like a clich, I know, but it really does help in the long run.
Next, many people tend to overthink their lives: how a situation will go, a test will turn out, or how
the day is going to be. More often than not, it is done in a negative manner. If ever found in an
instance where you are just thinking way too far ahead of yourself, just stop. Change you sights to
something else.
Lastly, know your limits. It is okay to realize that you might have overstuffed your plate. We all do it
sometimes! It is okay to drop something off of your to-do list that serves only to make you suffer.
Trust me, it might seem silly or make you feel weak, but you are not weak. Knowing you limits is a
very strong attribute to have.
Sometimes, teenagers become lost through it all. It is completely fine to be stressed out and lost,
just learn how to manage it.
