Related Topics: Tony Gonzalez

Welcome to the 10th daily installment of the NFL Draft 1-through-32 series on DK Pittsburgh Sports, intended to introduce you, a prospect at a time, to the top 32 players in the class on a consensus basis, leading right up to the main event.

That, of course, will be April 27-29, in Kansas City, Mo., though all 32 teams, including the Steelers on the South Side, will operate from their local headquarters.

NO. 10: CHRISTIAN GONZALEZ
Oregon cornerback

Gonzalez is the No. 10-rated player on Pro Football Focus' big board. A riser among draft boards because of his athletic traits, Gonzalez is in competition with Illinois' Devon Witherspoon as the top cornerback in the draft.
