The Steelers are perilously thin at cornerback, wide receiver, and along the offensive line. They fielded the oldest defense in football last season with five starters over 30. Pittsburgh excels at drafting defensive talent but needs more of it, according to Barnwell.
Barnwell advises the Steelers to address the center position later in the draft, aiming to find a starter while bolstering the defensive side. Noting a few top center prospects, he suggests alternates for immediate impact or future development.
Trading down could benefit the Steelers due to the draft's depth at key positions like wide receiver and cornerback. This strategy could provide an opportunity to acquire more talent and address multiple roster needs effectively.
