The center position is the biggest hole in the Pittsburgh Steelers’ roster, and while disagreement exists over the strength of this current draft class, broad consensus indicates Jackson Powers-Johnson is the favorite to go first.
Centers rarely go in the top half of the first round, however, so the Steelers have a very good shot. They hold the 20th-overall pick and may well land the top center in the class by sitting tight. Ryan Wilson of CBS Sports believes that’s a good idea, and mocked him to Pittsburgh. He discussed that decision on 93.7 with Andrew Fillipponi and Chris Mueller.
