– Oregon DL Derrick Harmon is the most well-liked first-round identify mocked. He appeared in 5 of the above eight mock drafts. Defensive linemen went first in seven of eight, Ole Miss’ Walter Nolen and Michigan’s Kenneth Grant additionally receiving “votes.”

The exception is with Nate Kosko’s mock, going quarterback with Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders.

– One other widespread identify was Clemson S R.J. Mickens. He confirmed up in three of the eight mocks.

– General, huge receiver was given the quick straw. It was addressed within the high 4 rounds (high three picks) in only one mock, Melanie Friedlander choosing Iowa State’s Jaylin Noel within the third spherical. The Steelers have completed their homework on the place, however will it’s sufficient to persuade them so as to add to it?

– There have been three “double-dips” throughout these eight mocks. All alongside the d-line. Melanie went d-line within the first and seventh spherical (Derrick Harmon and Ty Robinson) whereas Scott Brown did the identical (Derrick Harmon within the first, Yahya Black within the seventh). Jim Hester went Harmon within the first and JJ Pegues within the fifth.

– Who caught to the Steelers’ pre-draft go to checklist essentially the most? Tom Mead and Melanie Friedlander had 4 of their six picks come from it. Who had the least? Nate Kosko and David Orochena every solely had one.
