Steelers Draft: Max Iheanachor & Potential Picks

0:00On April 24th, the first night of the 2026 NFL Draft wrapped up with the Pittsburgh Steelers, making fans do a double-take. They had their eyes locked on USC-Y receiver, McCuy Lemon, but the Philadelphia Eagles snatched him right before their pick. So instead, Pittsburgh reached for offensive tackle, Max Ehanakor, a project guy who's got some raw potential, but left everyone wondering. Day 2 kicks off today, and the Steelers still hold four solid selections to patch up their roster gaps. After that Day 1 curveball, the focus shifts to building depth without forcing more reaches. Steelers' nation is buzzing with mixed vibes. Some heads scratched over the tackle grab, but the team's long-term vision has folks hopeful. Filling needs at guard, receiver, corner, and defensive tackle could flip the script quick. In Mod Projections, second round target is Oregon Guard Immanuel Pregnant, a six-year college vet who's a powerhouse with better hands and feet this. Third round brings North Dakota State wide-out Bryce Lands for deep speed.

1:02Texas and M. Corner will lead, the third for lockdown coverage, and Florida State. Defensive tackle Darryl Jackson, Jr., a six-foot-five beast with top leverage. With these pieces potentially falling into place, the Steelers are gearing up to reload and roar back into contention. That wraps NFL News today, brought to you with AI. I'm Corey, with the story.
