Our friends over at Draft Wire have put out a new seven-round mock draft with just over two weeks to the 2019 NFL draft. We dug into all 10 picks by the Pittsburgh Steelers and here’s how they broke down.
First round
Greedy Williams | Cornerback | LSU
Second round
Blake Cashman | Linebacker | Minnesota
Third round
Parris Campbell | Wide receiver | Ohio State
Third round
Foster Moreau | Tight end | LSU
Fourth round
D’Andre Walker | EDGE | Georgia
Fifth round
Rodney Anderson | RB | Oklahoma
Sixth round
Daylon Mack | DL | Texas A&M
Sixth round
Garrett Brumfield | OL | LSU
Sixth round
Marvell Tell III | S | USC
Seventh round
Stanley Morgan, Jr. | WR | Nebraska
Here’s our breakdown of the best and worst of the whole thing:
Best pick-Greedy Williams
If the Steelers are going to spend their first-round pick on a cornerback, let it be the one guy with elite NFL size and lots of experience.
Worst pick-Foster Moreau
With significant needs at outside linebacker and wide receiver, drafting a tight end here doesn’t make much sense.
Biggest reach-Parris Campbell
The triangle numbers for Parris Campbell are tremendous but they don’t match up with the production.
Biggest steal-Daylon Mack
Not many teams value a pure nose tackle but Mack would be welcome on the defensive front.
Biggest miss-Not drafting an edge rusher until the fourth round
Pittsburgh should dedicate a day one or two pick to a pass-rushing outside linebacker. Waiting until the fourth means it isn’t likely to be a guy who has an impact in 2019.
