Steelers Consider OLB Keion Adams Another Seventh-Round Selection This Year

The Pittsburgh Steelers made seven selections during the 2018 NFL Draft and not a one of them included the team adding another inside or outside linebacker. While it wasn’t totally clear if the Steelers would ultimately select an outside linebacker this year, general manager Kevin Colbert said immediately after the draft was over that they consider the one that they picked last year in the seventh-round as a drafted player again this year.

“When we look at the outside linebacker, you know Keion Adams was a kid we took last year in the seventh-round had a real good early start in the training camp.
