So for this Pittsburgh Steelers Mock Draft, I used FanSpeak.com as my engine, and did not allow trades to happen. I decided to let the draft come to me as I feel the Steelers and Kevin Colbert, in his final year as general manager, filled holes nicely and he did so without breaking the bank or mortgaging the Steelers future. (insert Browns punchline here)
1 OT Ikem Ekwonu – Jacksonville Jaguars
2 S Kyle Hamilton – Detroit Lions
3 EDGE Aidan Hutchinson – Houston Texans
4 EDGE Kayvon Thibodeaux – New York Jets
5 OT Evan Neal – New York Giants
6 QB Matt Corral – Carolina Panthers
7 EDGE Travon Walker – New York Giants
8 OT Charles Cross – Atlanta Falcons
9 QB Malik Willis – Seattle Seahawks
10 CB Trent McDuffie – New York Jets
11 LB Nakobe Dean – Washington Commanders
12 LB Devin Lloyd – Minnesota Vikings
13 WR Jameson Williams – Houston Texans
14 CB Ahmad Gardner – Baltimore Ravens
15 WR Drake London – Philadelphia Eagles
16 OT Trevor Penning – Philadelphia Eagles
17 DL Devonte Wyatt – LA Chargers
18 WR Chris Olave – New Orleans Saints
19 EDGE George Karlaftis – Philadelphia Eagles
The draft falls nicely for the Steelers in the first round. With Colbert filling a lot of holes via free agency, the Steelers don’t have many glaring holes. This allows them to take the best player available in the first round. Jordan Davis has really grown on me the last few weeks. He might not play 50% of the defensive snaps, but the snaps he does play will be very disruptive. With Tyson Alualu coming back from injury, and reports that Stephon Tuitt wants to return to football, it will allow the Steelers to inject Davis into the defense in certain situations that will maximize his contributions. It also will allow for him to condition his body for an even bigger role next season with Alualu likely retiring.

The draft continued to fall in the right direction for the Steelers. As of today, they’ve yet to fill the void at free safety vacated by Terrell Edmunds. While the team has a minimal offer on the table for Edmunds, it’s likely that he will eventually find more money from another team. The Steelers are reportedly still in the conversation for Pro Bowler Tyrann Mathieu, but his fate might not be decided until after the draft. If Brisker is available in the second round, the Steelers will surely take a strong look at him, and could ultimately decide he offers more value than putting money into the 29 year old Mathieu. Brisker is an astute player who seemingly knows where to be at the most opportune times. The three-year starter for Penn State made several game changing interceptions during his time at State College. He is a very athletic safety, and would be a perfect compliment to Minkah Fitzpatrick.

Steelers have a glaring need at receiver after JuJu Smith-Shuster, James Washington, and Ray-Ray McCloud all departed via free agency. They would be delighted to grab local product Skyy Moore in the third round. Moore is an above average athlete with enormous hands for his size. He runs good routes, uses his breaks and leverage to create separation, is a natural hands catcher, and should eventually take a starting role in the offense.

After going to offense, the Steelers quickly turn back to the defensive side of the ball. Andersen is bit of an enigma as he has played quarterback, running back, and linebacker at Montana State. But when watching the film, his play at linebacker really jumps off the screen. He is definitely raw when it comes to technique, but you can’t question his football instincts and motor. His speed really is noticeable when running sideline-to-sideline, and his strength on the field showed up on film. He was good in pass coverage, and his ability to read and diagnose passing route concepts was obvious. With Devin Bush potentially not getting his 5th year option picked up, I feel that the Steelers are going to need some depth at the middle linebacker position.

The former 4-star recruit for Arkansas ended up transferring back close to home at Southeast Louisiana. He had to sit out a year as this was before the transfer portal, and then the team sat out the pandemic season as well. But when Kelley finally got on the field as a starter, he did not disappoint. He threw for 5,124 yards, 44 TDs, 491 rushing yards and 16 rushing TDs in 2021 on his way to winning the Walter Payton FCS Award for top player. The towering Kelley at 6’7″ and 249lbs isn’t your classic statue in the pocket. He has the ability to get out of the pocket and run. I feel there isn’t a quarterback in the top end of this draft worthy of a first round pick. Especially with Mitchell Trubisky, Mason Rudolph, and Dwayne Haskins already on the roster. But Rudolph and Haskins are set to be free agents in 2023, and Trubisky is really only guaranteed this year. Kelley should at least be a nice addition to the practice squad with potential to push in 2023.

The former TCU Horn Frog is a mountain of a man. At 6′ 6 1/2″ and 321lbs, Eze is huge. But even more impressive is his 36+” long arms and nearly 86″ wingspan, and it is easy to see why he was able to stone some of the best pass rushers in the nation. As any man of his size, he does have issues with speed rushers, but with his length and strength, he has been able to win the majority of those battles. The Nigerian native wasn’t even allowed to play football until his senior season due to Tennessee foreign exchange rules for student athletes. He is very raw, but the upside is undeniable and I feel with some coaching and training could easily become a starting tackle in the NFL.

241 OT Obinna Eze – Pittsburgh Steelers
The former TCU Horn Frog is a mountain of a man. At 6′ 6 1/2″ and 321lbs, Eze is huge. But even more impressive is his 36+” long arms and nearly 86″ wingspan, and it is easy to see why he was able to stone some of the best pass rushers in the nation. As any man of his size, he does have issues with speed rushers, but with his length and strength, he has been able to win the majority of those battles. The Nigerian native wasn’t even allowed to play football until his senior season due to Tennessee foreign exchange rules for student athletes. He is very raw, but the upside is undeniable and I feel with some coaching and training could easily become a starting tackle in the NFL.
