In Kevin Colbert’s 22 years at the head of the table as General Manager for the Steelers, some big-time wide receiving talents have came through the door. In-fact, the Steelers are viewed by virtually the entire league as the benchmark when it comes to finding wide receiver talent in the draft, be it an early-round choice like Plaxico Burress or a sixth-rounder like multi-time All-Pro Antonio Brown. Even the Pro Bowl talent they have now in their leading receiver from a season ago, Diontae Johnson, was a third-round pick from Toledo in the MAC Conference.
It seems the team might have another draft diamond on their hands, in the form of second round pick George Pickens, hailing from the National Champion Georgia Bulldogs.
