Steelers duo named to Pro Football Writers of America All-Rookie Team

The Pittsburgh Steelers have had some pretty good drafts the past few seasons, and their 2017 NFL Draft was certainly par for the course.

For the second straight year, Pittsburgh was able to select two starters in the first two rounds with T.J. Watt out of Wisconsin in the first round, and JuJu Smith-Schuser from USC in the second round.

These two rookies were named to the Pro Football Writers of America’s All-Rookie Team for 2017. A tremendous honor for both players. See the full rosters below:

With this honor out of the way, and Smith-Schuster named the Steelers’ team Rookie of the Year, you have to wonder if either player will receive any votes for Offensive, or Defensive, Rookie of the Year honors.
