When the Pittsburgh Steelers landed Oregon defensive lineman Derrick Harmon at No. 21 overall in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft in Green Bay, the belief was the Steelers were getting a player that fits like a glove to not only the Steelers’ defensive scheme, but also the culture and play-style, too.
After all, Harmon models his game after Steelers’ All-Pro defensive tackle Cameron Heyward and certainly looks the part on tape.
Heyward himself is quite excited to have Harmon on the roster because of what the Oregon product can do for the Steelers’ defensive line moving forward.
