The Pittsburgh Steelers selected Iowa DL Logan Lee with the 178th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, adding a depth piece to their defensive line after prioritizing other positions like offensive line, wide receiver, and inside linebacker earlier in the draft. Lee has been brought in to provide depth behind starters including Cameron Heyward, Larry Ogunjobi, and Keeanu Benton, joining the likes of Montravius Adams, Dean Lowry, Isaiahh Loudermilk, and DeMarvin Leal rounding out the team’s depth chart.

In Tom Mead’s scouting report on Logan Lee, Mead concluded that Lee is a high-effort player who profiles well as a prototypical two-down run defender at the next level but lacks the upside as a pass rusher to become a reliable full-time starter:

Overall, Lee has very good starting experience and a very good motor.
