    1st Round Pick, 15th Overall – LB Ryan Shazier, Ohio State In terms of talent, Shazier was an excellent value with the No. 15 pick. Shazier’s combination of speed and athleticism is rare among all prospects in this draft. Although I personally feel that the Steelers should have gone with a top cornerback at this pick, […]

    Completely agree. They still need a true left tackle. They have a lot of young talent on the line but none of them are true left tackles
