When the Pittsburgh Steelers drafted OT Troy Fautanu 20th overall, the initial reactions were almost universally positive. A lot of people figured he wouldn’t even be there for the Steelers to consider. The Steelers may have even let it slip during head coach Mike Tomlin’s call to Fautanu that he was ranked seventh out of 20 prospects on their big board.
Shortly after that initial giddy feeling, a question likely cropped up: Where would Fautanu play? The Steelers aren’t even considering him at guard like a number of other teams. However, there is still the question of left tackle versus right tackle.
