Depending on who you talk to or read post-2022 NFL Draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers either had a good draft overall, or reached on a quarterback too early and tanked away any chance at a good draft overall.
However, Pro Football Focus’s Timo Riske, using analytics to determine who had the best draft last weekend across the NFL, believes that the Steelers outdistanced themselves in a big way from the rest of the NFL when it comes to adding value coming out of the 2022 NFL Draft.
Coming out of the 2022 NFL Draft, the Steelers added the likes of quarterback Kenny Pickett, wide receiver George Pickens, defensive lineman DeMarvin Leal, wide receiver Calvin Austin III, h-back Connor Heyward, linebacker Mark Robinson and quarterback Chris Oladokun, earning high praise from PFF from an analytics standpoint.
