Steelers' Mock Draft: Safety Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at 21

0:00On April 9th, the Pittsburgh Steelers sit at the 21st spot in the NFL draft, coming up in just over two weeks. While folks buzz about them grabbing a quarterback since Aaron Rodgers hasn't inked a new deal yet, a fresh mock draft from CBS Sports points them. Toward bolstering the secondary instead, earlier this week, writer Gare Padel projected they'd snag Toledo Safety, a manual McNeil Warren right there at 21. After trading for a wide-out Michael Pittman Jr. to juice the offense, this pick would inject some young talent into a defense needing fresh legs. McNeil Warren brings serious ball-hawking skills from four seasons with the Rockets, suiting up in 48 games. He racked up 106 solo tackles, 11 tackles for loss, 1 sack, and 5 picks, numbers that screenplaymaker. Scouts love his versatility. He can line up anywhere in the back end. Profitball focus had him as the number two safety out of 9-14 last year, with top-tier coverage grades, even if Caleb Downs leads.

1:01The pack. That lines up Pittsburgh with a long-term safety solution, paring raw upside with vets like, maybe Jalen Ramsey for guidance. Offer, keeping there. Black and gold defense humming strong into the future. NFL news today, powered by AI bringing you what matters on Game Day. I'm Cory with the story.
