If there’s been one position the Steelers have addressed early in the draft over the last two years, it’s been on the offensive line. This year, things look a little different. The offensive line looks more promising. Now, the defensive line and quarterback are two areas that Pittsburgh seems destined to look at with the 21st overall selection.
Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo thinks Pittsburgh should address the defense early and often in the draft if it wants to maintain its defense-first identity.
“If you’re looking to continue being this team that’s gonna be strong defensively, you’re going to have to start replacing guys like Cam Heyward, other guys, Minkah Fitzpatrick,” Fittipaldo said on The North Shore Drive Podcast on Monday.
