Steeler general manager Omar Khan made a name for himself in his first year at the helm for the NFL draft. When you get tagged with a complimentary nickname your first day on the job, you have earned the respect of the organization.
When the Steelers traded up three spots to select highly touted left tackle prospect Broderick Jones right in front of the tackle-needy New York Jets, it was seen as a savvy veteran move by the rookie GM. Mike Tomlin referred to him as the “Khan Artist” in an interview shortly after it was learned that the Steelers’ cost to move up those three spots was less than expected (only a fourth-round pick when similar moves cost a third-rounder).
