Player: DL Derrick Harmon
Stock Value: Up
Reasoning: Steelers DL coach Karl Dunbar confirmed yesterday that Derrick Harmon is already taking starter reps, urging reporters to print that. While not a shocking development, it is a window into the first-round pick’s timeline for development. At the same time, it’s also a window into the lack of quality depth the Steelers have.
Most undoubtedly assumed that Derrick Harmon would open the 2025 season as a starter with the Steelers. They did not, perhaps, assume that he would be “starting” already in mandatory minicamp.
