Steelers Record | Likely 2026 Draft Slot |
| 9–8 | ~15–20 overall (mid‑to‑late teens) |
10–7 | ~20–24+ overall (late teens/lower 20s)  |
I am still thinking 9 and 8 is a more realistic finish…
That's an impossibility - The Raiders aren't trading out of the number 1 pick.
Giants and Raiders play each other before the end of the season so loser of that one most likely to have number 1 pick, and I'm picking Giants to win.
Sorry for the late.
Yeah they should think hard about that. Going DE, WR, G, and CB could really help the talent level on the team.
They've already spent a lot of draft capital on the trenches the last three drafts. Not as much on DL as OL, but they've still spent a 1,2, 5 and 6 in that time. If they don't start doing more drafting in the secondary, and to a lesser degree the offensive skill positions, they're going to be in desperation mode come 2027. The last five drafts Joey Porter Jr is the only defensive back the Steelers have drafted earlier than the 6th round (they did give up a 2023 fifth rounder in 2021 for Witherspoon). For a position group that represents about 20% of your starters that's a serious lack of draft investment.
I would probably stay away from QBs under 6'0 with projected draft 4th rd or later. That's one miss I can live with even if they become a superstar. I also have this feeling the Ravens will do what they can to snatch whatever first rd pick they think we would go with as i anticipate them being before the Steelers in the draft order and they could definitely use another WR.

Looks thorough, I presume that RB was taken because you think Gainwell isn’t returning…
Never know always keep a horse in the stable...
Seeing how you picked a WR I had A I look at the top ten prospects drop rate. (for anyone who gets curious on the topic)
| Rank | Player (School) | 2025 Drops | Drop % | Scouting Note |
| 1 | Carnell Tate (Ohio St) | 1 | 1.9% | The most reliable hands in the draft. Caught 12 of 14 contested targets. |
| 2 | Jordyn Tyson (Arizona St) | 4 | 6.1% | Elite route runner, but had a few "focus drops" on easy underneath crossing routes. |
| 3 | Makai Lemon (USC) | 3 | 3.6% | Extremely efficient. His low drop rate makes him a perfect "move the chains" target. |
| 4 | Denzel Boston(Washington) | 3 | 4.6% | Huge target at 6'4". Very rare for a big-bodied receiver to have hands this clean. |
| 5 | Zachariah Branch(Georgia) | 6 | 11.2% | High drop rate is the main concern. He’s electric, but he struggles with "hand-eye" timing. |
| 6 | KC Concepcion (Texas A&M) | 5 | 7.5% | High volume in the slot leads to more opportunities for drops, but 7.5% is acceptable. |
| 7 | Ja'Kobi Lane (USC) | 2 | 3.9% | Another big target (6'4") with very reliable hands. He catches everything in his radius. |
| 8 | Chris Brazzell II(Tennessee) | 9 | 12.6% | The Red Flag. Leads the top group in drops. He creates separation but lacks "finish." |
| 9 | Chris Bell (Louisville) | 4 | 5.2% | Solid hands, but his late-season ACL injury is a bigger worry than his drop rate. |
| 10 | Germie Bernard(Alabama) | 2 | 4.1% | Very reliable. He’s the "safety valve" type of receiver that keeps an offense on schedule. |
This draft isn' particularly good. I'm 100% trading for future picks and absolutely trying to move up in the first round for Lemon or Tate.
Look at the underwhelming production of some of the upper echelon hopefuls. Yeah not great. I like Lemon he has a high mix of production plus great hands… he would be my pick…
He will be long gone.
