The Pittsburgh Steelers entered the 2024 NFL Draft with seven picks over the three-day event, including four in the top 100.
The Steelers opened the draft by bolstering their offensive line with Washington’s Troy Fautanu, who started at left tackle for the Huskies but is seen by some as having five-position flexibility.
They continued the run up front by plugging a big hole at center with West Virginia’s Zach Frazier, who grew up in the Steelers’ backyard.
The Pittsburgh Steelers are adding another name to their offensive line, selecting South Dakota State guard Mason McCormick with their first pick of Day 3, No. 119 in the 2024 NFL Draft.
The Steelers started the draft with three offensive picks, adding Washington offensive tackle Troy Fautanu, West Virginia center Zach Frazier and Michigan wide receiver Roman Wilson.
Then turned their attention to the defense with their second third-round pick, adding North Carolina State’s Payton Wilson.
They’re now heading back to the offensive side of the ball and adding their third linemen.
In Pittsburgh, McCormick will come in with an opportunity to grow behind Isaac Seumalo and James Daniels at guard.
He’ll compete with both Nate Herbig and Spencer Anderson for a roster spot.
The Steelers will head into their final two picks, holding selections 178 and 195 – both in the sixth round.
