STEELERS DEPOT MOCK DRAFTS
Steelers Depot contributors posted various versions of their mock drafts since February. Here, I’ve consolidated the latest versions of eight contributors.
The Steelers have seven picks in 2022 but either a trade up or down could affect that number on draft day.

CONCLUSION
The mock drafts included 29 offensive and 27 defensive players. Seven of eight mock drafts show a quarterback selected in first round. Two different quarterbacks named: Malik Willis or Desmond Ridder. But Andrew Shaver boldly picks center Tyler Linderbaum going in the first. Then he shows Carson Strong picked in second round. Presumably, all predict Kenny Pickett to be out of reach. Alex Kozora brazenly picks two quarterbacks.
Wide receiver and safety are also included on all eight mock drafts. Cornerback on seven of eight drafts. Unsurprisingly, seven mock drafts included offensive or defensive line. That’s if you don’t include edge defenders. Then it’s all eight.
Soon enough, we’ll find out who the Pittsburgh Steelers draft over the next three days. Who will have bragging rights among the Steelers Depot contributors?
