The Pittsburgh Steelers finally have some new players to talk about, after making two selections during the second day of the 2020 NFL Draft last night. With their first selection at pick 49, they added yet another wide receiver in Notre Dame’s Chase Claypool, a big-bodied target that should have Ben Roethlisberger ready to make some of those ‘NFL throws’ he’s been talking about this morning.
In the third round, at pick 102, the front office looked to insulate their pass-rush game, going into the small-school arena with Alex Highsmith, who will serve as depth behind their starters at outside linebacker, including 2019 first-team All-Pro T.
