It's April 7th. This is NFL News Today, your AI-powered source for everything in a fill. The Pittsburgh Steelers are bringing in three key prospects for pre-drab visits at their South Side spot on April 7th. Leading the pack is Washington-wide receiver Denzel Boston, joined by Florida State Defense of Tackle Darrel Jackson, Jr., and Louisiana Linebacker. Jaden Dugger, a Pittsburgh native from Penn Hills High School, Boston put up 881 yards in 11 touchdowns last season at Washington, and he turned heads at his pro day a few weeks back. He's not the flashiest after the catch, and sometimes fights for separation, but scouts see him as a steady producer in the pros. He's right in the mix as a potential first-round pick if the Steelers go offense early, sitting alongside names like Indiana's Omar Cooper, Jr., and Texas A&M's KC Concepts Ion. Pittsburgh has already hosted top 30 visits with other receivers, such as Alabama's Jeremy Bernard, Kentucky's Kendrick Law, and Cincinnati's Jeff Caldwell.

Meanwhile, Jackson stands six-foot-five with real power on the interior line, wrapping up his college run at Florida State after stops at Maryland, and Miami, where he notch 7.56 and 127 tackles total. Dugger ball bowed over 27 games at Louisiana, with 162 tackles, five sacks, two forced fumbles, and a pick. These moves signal the Steelers are stacking options across offense and defense as the draft clock ticks down, keeping everyone guessing on their big swings.
