After returning from the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama, the author has a better idea of what the Pittsburgh Steelers may do in the upcoming 2025 NFL Draft. In their first mock draft, the author predicts that the Steelers will prioritize their defensive line needs in the first round, selecting Kenneth Grant from Michigan. Grant is seen as a massive and athletic player with pass-rush potential.
In the second round, the author predicts the Steelers will address their wide receiver needs by selecting Jack Bech from TCU. Bech is described as a versatile receiver who can play both outside and in the slot. The third round pick is Denzel Burke from Ohio State, a scheme-versatile cornerback with ball production skills.
In the later rounds, the Steelers are predicted to select Bhayshul Tuten, a speedy running back from Virginia Tech, Jamaree Caldwell, a nose tackle from Oregon, Tyler Shough, a quarterback from Louisville, Jalen Rivers, an offensive lineman from Miami, and Alijah Huzzie, a cornerback from North Carolina.
The author notes that the Steelers are looking to address their needs on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball in the draft, with an emphasis on speed and versatility. The selections made in this mock draft are based on the team’s current needs and the players’ fit within the Steelers’ system.
