When all is said and done in the careers of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ draft picks, there’s a good chance that the 2017 NFL Draft haul by former GM Kevin Colbert might be one of his best drafts ever.
Five years removed from bringing in the likes of T.J. Watt, JuJu Smith-Schuster, James Conner, Cameron Sutton and Joshua Dobbs, the Steelers’ draft haul from the 2017 NFL Draft still stands up as one of the best in the NFL from that season, and one of the better ones in the Steelers’ 22-year run under Colbert.
According to Bleacher Report’s Maurice Moton, the Steelers’ 2017 NFL Draft class received just one of four “A” grades in the five-year re-draft exercise Thursday, joining the Buffalo Bills, Kansas City Chiefs and New Orleans Saints with “A” grades.
