According to a Pittsburgh Steelers insider, they will target a specific position in the second round.
Pittsburgh In the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers selected an offensive lineman to bolster their squad. They now have needs at wide receiver, cornerback, and center going into Day 2. Furthermore, according to a club insider, they already know their strategy for the second round.
The Athletic’s Mark Kaboly stated that the Steelers will ” defeninitely” take a wide receiver with their second-round choice in an interview with 93.7 The Fan. Roman Wilson of Michigan will be that wide receiver, in his opinion.
As of right now, the Steelers own the 51st pick in the second round. To cap out Day 2 of the NFL Draft, they will have selections No. 84 and 98 in the third round.
There is a theory that the Steelers might move up in the second round to select a player before selecting selection No. 51. If they made a move up, it might have been for a center who still had Zach Frazier and Jackson Powers-Johnson on the roster. Despite the fact that George Pickens is the only reliable wide receiver on the club, they still need a true center on the roster following Mason Cole’s release.
Wide receiver appears to be their most likely selection if they are ranked 51st and neither of the top centers are available.
