The Pittsburgh Steelers have rarely possessed more than one first-round pick. It has only happened twice in their history, once in 1956 when they selected safety Gary Glick, and halfback Art Davis and again in 1989 when they took running back Tim Worley, and offensive tackle Tim Ricketts. It appears, however, that it is a real possibility this offseason with the pending trade request of star wideout, Antonio Brown. I would like to take a look at the changes to the Steelers draft strategy that could result from such a trade.
The first and biggest change that would likely result in the team’s approach would be a shift in team needs.
