With the 207th pick of the 2019 NFL Draft the Pittsburgh Steelers selected Akron LB Ulysees Gilbert III

The Pittsburgh Steelers used their third and final pick of the sixth round to select Akron LB Ulysees Gilbert III. The young man immediately gains acceptance on the NFL's All Name team. I would have absolutely loved to have been the individual given the prestigious honor to announce his selection. The name is just fun to say. Don't believe me, give it a spin. It is impossible not to smile when you say it. In a draft class comprised with some questionable; dare I say disappointing, selections, Ulysees Gilbert III is a breath of fresh air. It just rolls off the tongue.
