2024 PITTSBURGH STEELERS DRAFT

The PITTSBURGH STEELERS 2024 Draft Recap

Team Needs: 

OL, WR, CB, DL

 

Summary:

NFL Analyst Brian Baldinger, believes that the Pittsburgh Steelers won the draft with their selections. I do agree they completed hailmary's on thier first two selections in Fauntanu and Frazier to sure up their offensive line. They proceeded to follow up their strong start to the draft by adding a couple more Wilson's to the roster in (WR) Roman and (LB) Payton. These first four selections build a strong argument for Baldinger's stance on their draft. However, the second half of the draft stalled out, worse than a Kenny Pickett led drive they had come accustomed to seeing last season.
