Alabama inside linebacker Dont'a Hightower is having a pre-draft visit with the Pittsburgh Steelers today. Hightower is the popular pick to go to the Steelers in the first round. His leadership ability (a two-time captain at Alabama) and experience in the 3-4 defense makes him a strong candidate to replace James Farrior, who was cut by the Steelers this offseason. Taking Hightower with the 24th overall pick makes sense for the Steelers, but I don't see this as a slam-dunk choice. The Steelers could look at offensive line and cornerback in the first round as well. Source: ESPN
