The Athletic Names Steelers One Of NFL Draft Biggest Winners

It wasn’t the flashiest draft overall, which isn’t surprising considering three offensive linemen and one defensive tackle were selected out of the seven total draft picks in the 2024 NFL Draft, but the Pittsburgh Steelers seemingly nailed all seven draft picks in the three-day draft in Detroit.

Entering the 2024 NFL Draft, the Steelers needed to add some impact offensive linemen, address the receiver position, and add a piece or two to the defensive line.

Consider that a job well done by GM Omar Khan and assistant GM Andy Weidl.

Coming out of the three-day draft in Detroit, the Steelers addressed a number of key needs, landing Washington offensive lineman Troy Fautanu, West Virginia center Zach Frazier, and South Dakota State guard Mason McCormick within three of the first five picks, doing something the Steelers hadn’t done in the draft since 1976.
