Steelers’ Compensatory Pick For Russell Wilson Could Be Tapped Out If Jaxson Dart Hype Is Real

Related Topics: Russell Wilson

The Giants already announced that former Steelers QB Russell Wilson will be their starter, but how long will that last? At least going by the preseason performance of rookie first-round QB Jaxson Dart, it’s a legitimate question. And it’s one that affects the Steelers, as his play, and his playing time, affect their compensatory draft pick.

As it stands, the Steelers are projected to gain third-, fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-round compensatory picks, with the fifth-round projection being for Russell Wilson. None of these are completely set in stone just yet, however, and can depend on other factors.
