Report: Maryland S Darnell Savage Expected To Go Top 40, Could Be Surprise 1st Round Pick

Although the Pittsburgh Steelers seem to have their sights set on Maryland safety Darnell Savage, if they want to draft him, they’re likely to face a difficult decision. Either take him at #20 or risk on missing out on him entirely.

In a conference call highlighting next week’s draft, NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah said teams around the league “love” Savage and predicted him to be a Top 40 player with a chance to go in the first round.

“Savage is, I’m glad you brought him up, because there’s no player that’s got more steam and momentum right now in this draft than Darnell Savage,” Jeremiah said.
