Modern History Of Steelers Top Ten Draft Picks

It’s pretty rare to see the Pittsburgh Steelers pick in the top ten. This draft was only the second time it occurred in Kevin Colbert’s long-tenure. Ever since Chuck Noll arrived, it’s become much more common to see the team turn their draft card with a pick in the 20s. So with the team being aggressive and moving up to #10 to select Devin Bush, a brief history of the other top 10 picks the franchise has made since Noll was named head coach in 1969.
