Steelers president Art Rooney II finally brought the draft to the city, and he expects Pittsburgh to outdo Green Bay. The Packers’ hometown hosted the 2025 NFL Draft, which faired quite well, no question. But speaking to Steelers Nation Radio, Rooney thinks those are rookie numbers.
“I have been watching, observing where they’re putting everybody”, the Steelers president said, reflecting on Pittsburgh’s turn to host the draft in 2026. “And I have to say, I think we’ll have a lot more people than they had in Green Bay. They’ll be coming from all over”.
