PFF Mock Draft Sees Steelers Address Secondary Concerns With Big, Physical DB

Through the first four games of the season, the secondary for the Pittsburgh Steelers has been a real concern.

Offseason addition Patrick Peterson has struggled quite a bit in man coverage, allowing four touchdowns on the season after allowing just 12 the last two seasons. Veteran Levi Wallace hasn’t fared much better, allowing a team-high 21 receptions while surrendering two touchdowns as well.

Rookie cornerback Joey Porter Jr. has been limited to just 58 total snaps through the first four weeks of the season, but he’s allowed just two receptions on six targets, holding his own when on the field.
