The key word in that sentence is “find.” The Pittsburgh Steelers don’t need to go to the 2017 NFL Draft searching for a tight end. At that point, they’re only wasting a draft pick and focusing attention to an area they don’t need to upgrade.
Look, Jesse James wasn’t a Pro Bowler last season, but he showed a lot of promise. For a 6’7, 254-pound tight end, James wasn’t considered much of a pass catcher leaving college, and the Steelers didn’t draft him to be much of one in the NFL.
Last year, though, when Green went down and spent most of the season injured, James was the guy at tight end.
