Related Topics: Pittsburgh Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers closed out their pre-draft visits this week by bringing in two linebackers in Michigan’s Junior Colson and N.C. State’s Payton Wilson, two players who are considered among the top linebackers in the class. Pittsburgh made a splash by signing Patrick Queen in free agency, but after dealing with injuries and depth issues at the position last season, the Steelers could target it in the draft. During an appearance on The Joe Starkey Show on 93.7 The Fan, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Ray Fittipaldo said the Steelers could look at a linebacker in the third round, and specifically listed Wilson as a name to watch.
