The Steelers might be interested in drafting a cornerback at No. 17, and there's been a lot of speculation about Penn State's Joey Porter Jr. But if he's not available at that spot, what else could the Steelers do at cornerback in the draft?

The team will be doing its due diligence by bringing in a pair of high-profile cornerbacks for top 30 visits, according to reports Tuesday.

One visit has been scheduled with Mississippi State's Emmanuel Forbes.

Forbes is rated as the 40th best prospect available and a potential second-round pick at NFL Mock Draft Database, although some mock drafts have him going in the first round.
