Scouts Weigh In On DL Class: Byron Murphy’s ‘Going To Be Like Casey Hampton’

One of the underrated needs for the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 2024 NFL Draft is along the defensive line. They have their starting lineup set in Cameron Heyward, Keeanu Benton, and Larry Ogunjobi, but need to add talent to the group for a future without Heyward or Ogunjobi. If it isn’t addressed this year, it will become the team’s top need in next year’s draft, and likely a pressing one if Heyward hangs up his pads after this season.

Bob McGinn has been publishing thoughts from NFL scouts around the league and covering the draft for 40 years, though he has kept the sources anonymous for the last decade.
