Bud Dupree is turning out to be quite the player for the Pittsburgh Steelers, but don’t kid yourself into thinking he’s on the same level as T.J. Watt.
It was hard to be too disappointed when the Steelers drafted Bud Dupree with the 22nd overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft. Pittsburgh had a need for an edge defender and the 2015 draft was relatively weak overall, so taking a chance on the athletic Dupree was a good move.
