Buy Or Sell: Steelers Made Right Move Not Trading Back And Taking Fautanu

Buy Or Sell: The Pittsburgh Steelers made the right call not trading back and selecting T Troy Fautanu.

Explanation: As with their 32nd-overall selection, the Steelers reportedly had ample opportunity to trade back in the first round. But they refused to trade away from CB Joey Porter Jr. last year, and they refused to trade away from Troy Fautanu this year. Pittsburgh likely adds a day-four selection by trading back a few spots off of 20.

There’s no debate here. Troy Fautanu was the last of the top tier of tackles, so they couldn’t afford to trade away from him.
