It's generally agreed that the Steelers will focus the beginning of their draft on Corners, Safeties, Defensive Tackles, and Defensive Ends. While we're at it we might as well set up a fourth category for Other. Here is a comparative look at the players BTSC considers to be viable possibilities for the Steeler picks in any of the first four rounds. It should be a useful guide for draft day. [And it's the perfect set of notes if you want to test our Board on one of the simulators!]
