Steelers’ 2020 Draft Class Ranked 8th In Production By ESPN

The Pittsburgh Steelers only had six draft picks in total, none of which were in the first round. They only had one draft pick inside of the top 50, and that was at 49. In fact, it was their only selection in the top 100 picks. And yet they managed to produce likely three starters from that class, while the entire group remains with the team, an extreme rarity.

It starts at the top with Chase Claypool, the wide receiver out of Notre Dame taken in the second round. He set or tied team rookie record with 62 receptions for 11 total touchdowns, nine of them receiving, and clearly has a bright future ahead of him.
