I'd wager pretty much anything the Steelers won't be using picks on RB's Parker/Mendenhall is their 1-2 with Moore being the perfect 3rd down type back, they have no problems there.
I think they'll be looking more to OL and WR early in this draft.

Well, Marco ALREADY drafted an OFFENSIVE LINEMAN with one of the first two picks and I didn't see much value there, over a player like Rashad Jennings.
Regardless, if you THINK, Mendenhall will be okay, the guy ahead of him is running on empty and still doesn't change the fact that Mendenhall was a major letdown and should in no way, shape, or form, keep them from attempting to upgrade the position. Relying on a starter who rushed for less than 800 yards, a third-down back, and an majorily-injured player isn't thinking long-term, especially with a talent like Jennings available.
