Chris Oladokun Calls Fellow Samford Alum Duck Hodges ‘A Pittsburgh Legend’, Hopes To Follow Path To Playing Time

There is something to be said for an organization to have a clear vision and a consistent process when it comes to roster building, and the Pittsburgh Steelers certainly have that. That doesn’t mean that it prevents them from making decisions that leave ample room for second-guessing.

Like taking a second quarterback in the seventh round after having already drafted one in the first, to give you one more quarterback than will actually make the 53-man roster. That seventh-round pick was Chris Oladokun, who came out of South Dakota State last year—by way of transfer from Samford.

Oladokun has, let’s say, a lot of college experience, actually.
