CBS 2017 Mock Draft: Steelers Take S Obi Melifonwu In First Round

All aboard the Obi Melifonwu train.

CBS Sports’ Rob Rang just released his newest mock draft to kick off this Monday and he has the Pittsburgh Steelers taking the UConn safety with the 30th overall pick. Here’s his full explanation.

“Two years ago, it was former Husky Byron Jones who wowed scouts at the combine with his sheer athleticism, earning a first-round pick by Dallas. Melifonwu was one of this year’s brightest stars in Indianapolis, producing a 4.40-second 40-yard dash, 44-inch vertical and 11-9 broad jump at 6-4, 224 pounds.
