Can Steelers CB Justin Layne make the necessary steps to contribute in 2020?

After the fourth round, wish for the best. While the NFL draft may have its hidden, late-round gems, front offices reside primarily in hope & faith for breakout contributors at that point. The Steelers 2019 draft class is a great example, but have an anomaly that could be a late-riser for the group.

Amongst its 5 selections, no Steelers draft choice picked after round four played more than 75 snaps at their respective position (LB Ulysses Gilbert played 150 on ST). The latter however in LB Devin Bush, WR Diontae Johnson, & RB Benny Snell all became starters in separate moments.
