If you were hoping to see what happened to Sonny Weaver Jr….you are reading the wrong blog! So it was a weird day on many levels, but the Steelers having no 1st round picks, was by far the strangest part of the draft for me.
The Steelers get on the board today and don’t be surprised if they move around a little bit, to stock pile some picks. When looking back over the last years, here is a look at some of the highlights from Round 3 since 2010.
Year | Player | Pos | Rating | Comment |
2019 | Diontae Johnson | WR | Inc | Too Early to tell athough was the best receiver last year |
2019 | Justin Layne | CB | Inc | Too Early to tell, he has the tools, needs a chance |
2018 | Mason Rudolph | QB | C+ | Was playing well until the concussion, absolutely can play in this league |
2018 | Chuks Okorafor | T | Inc | Has shown a great upside |
2017 | Cameron Sutton | CB | Inc | Has had limited exposure |
2017 | James Conner | RB | B- | Would have been an A but has trouble staying on the field |
2016 | Javon Hargrave | DT | B+ | Did a great job during his tenure, he will be missed |
2015 | Sammie Coates | WR | C | Took the lid off the defense, but a broken hand derailed his tenure and is now XFL alumni |
2014 | Dri Archer | RB | F | Never made an impact despite world class talent |
2013 | Markus Wheaton | WR | C+ | Was a good contributor while in the Burgh |
2012 | Sean Spence | RB | Inc | What might have been, |
2011 | Curtis Brown | CB | F | Never materialized |
2010 | Emmanuel Sanders | WR | A | Great contributor, who is still in the league |
It is sort of a mixed bag of picks. The last two years will determine, how successful this was.
Tomorrow we will highlight the rest! Also will post the pick and the scouting report of any of the Steelers picks!
BEER WE GO STEELERS, BEER WE GO!
