As of right now, the Pittsburgh Steelers continue to cling to their playoff hopes which makes projecting where they will pick in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft a complete mystery. The team could turn things around and finish in a flurry or the bottom could fall out on the season completely.
So when we decided to look at the most realistic first-round options for the Steelers, we decided to break it into thirds. Three prospects if the Steelers are picking in the top 10, three more for the middle of the round and three more for the end of the round, in that order. And yes, there is a quarterback in each tier.
1 - CB Kool-Aid McKinstry, Alabama
2 - QB Bo Nix, Oregon
3 - CB Nate Wiggins, Clemson
4 - QB Michael Penix Jr., Washington
5 - S Kamren Kinchens, Miami
6 - CB Terrion Arnold, Alabama
7 - S Tyler Nubin, Minnesota
8 - QB Jayden Daniels, LSU
