Brian Baldinger On Steelers’ First-Round Pick: ‘Center Is The Position They Need To Get Fixed’

The Pittsburgh Steelers are in a bit of a predicament going into the 2024 NFL Draft. They stand with just one pick in the top 50, No. 20, and have a handful of big-time needs.

Taking a cornerback or a wide receiver with the 20th pick has been discussed, and is certainly within the realm of possibility. However, both those positional classes look to be quite deep this year, and there should be some quality prospects into Day 2 and even Day 3.

That would leave two main needs for the Steelers: tackle and center. It’s looking increasingly likely that the Steelers use the 20th pick to bolster an offensive line with two clear holes, as there is much less depth at these positions.
