The Ringer Gives Steelers ‘A+’ Grade For Selection Of Troy Fautanu, Who Blocks With ‘Plenty Of Vinegar’

It wasn’t the flashiest pick, but it might have been the nastiest pick — in a good way.

Sitting at No. 20 overall, the Pittsburgh Steelers landed Washington offensive lineman Troy Fautanu in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, adding a player who brings a real physical presence to the offensive line, a position group that the Steelers continue to build up in a major way.

While there is some question as to whether he sticks at left tackle or moves to right tackle, or even ultimately moves inside to guard or center, the Steelers very clearly got one of the top-rated players on their draft board and are ecstatic about it.
