Analyst Sees Steelers Target Cooper DeJean As NFL Safety: ‘He Struggles A Bit’

With a need at corner, the Pittsburgh Steelers have done their homework on the top names in the class. That includes Iowa’s Cooper DeJean, a late entrant into the Steelers’ possibilities at No. 20, coming in for a pre-draft visit this past week. But at least one analyst thinks he’ll have to make a position switch to stick at the NFL. And if so, it’d make him less likely of a fit and help to Pittsburgh.

Appearing on the Ross Tucker podcast, analyst Greg Cosell questioned if DeJean can stick at corner, floating the idea of him moving to safety.
