2018 NFL Mock Draft: Peter King Has Steelers Going Cornerback In First Round

Peter King of Sports Illustrated released his one and only mock draft of 2018 on Monday and his prediction of how things will go during Thursday’s first-round not only includes some trades, but the Pittsburgh Steelers selecting a cornerback at 28 overall.

King has the Steelers selecting former Louisville cornerback Jaire Alexander 28th overall in round-one and he writes of the pick:

Oh, how wonderful it would have been if the draft fell just right to the Steelers and they could take an all-field playmaker to replace the fallen Ryan Shazier.
