Pittsburgh Steelers: Meet the pick, Justin Layne

The Pittsburgh Steelers have seemingly found one of their needs to be corner for the last few seasons now. They added two this offseason via free agency and the draft.

The signing of Steven Nelson allowed them to not have to reach for one in the draft. This lead to them finding a possible gem in Justin Layne from Michigan State.

Layne is a tall and lanky press corner that stands 6-foot 2-inches tall and weighs in at 192 pounds. He was recruited as a receiver and then made the switch full-time to corner in his sophomore season.
