Steelers Depot

For the first time this year, I'm releasing a Pittsburgh Steelers mock draft. This is the first of several versions I'll occasionally post until April's draft. The debut one is always the most hazy as we learn about team needs and interest, anticipate free agency, and learn more about the prospects. But it's a good starting point for what I think the team will do in the draft. Keep that in mind; it's a mock of what I think the Steelers will do, not my wish list. Quick notes: I don't use a simulator for these mock draft articles. The others considered reflect a list of prospects who make sense, but I didn't consider them for various reasons (including weighing the odds of that player actually being on the board). Also, I didn't add a true WR in this edition. That could change in future mocks but I believe the team will add in free agency, signing a No. 2 veteran. With that in mind, my mock is below. My next will drop sometime in March, possibly right after the new league year.
