Steelers Take Wide Receiver At Top Of CBS’ Three-Round Mock Draft

Quarterback might be the biggest long-term need the Pittsburgh Steelers have. But wide receiver and safety are their most immediate. In Ryan Wilson’s latest three-round mock draft for CBS, he has the Steelers foregoing the quarterback position and focusing on the here and now, adding a receiver and safety with the team’s top two picks

At #20, he has the team selecting Arkansas WR Treylon Burks. Explaining the pick, Wilson writes:

“Burks is a contested and high-point catch machine. Don’t be fooled by his 4.55 40 at the combine — he regularly outran defensive backs to the end zone in the SEC and that won’t change in the NFL.
