On the Saturday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Brian Batko to sort through the week in NFL mock draft picks for new coach Mike McCarthy's team.
Is USC's Makai Lemon a prospect who could fall to the Steelers at No. 21 overall, as he did in some mocks this week? Or is he still a prospect they'd need to trade up to select? And how does his game compare to that of larger receivers in this class, including Denzel Boston, Jordyn Tyson and Carnell Tate?
Our duo tackles those questions and more. Is Indiana's Omar Cooper Jr. a receiver fans need to put on their proverbial radar? Especially with an eye toward Day 2 of the NFL draft? Would Alabama QB Ty Simpson really have the luxury of learning behind a veteran were he drafted by the Steelers in the first round? Especially if the veteran is anyone other than Aaron Rodgers? Should we be looking more closely at tackle prospects including Spencer Fano, Caleb Lomu and Kadyn Proctor following GM Omar Khan's lukewarm assessment of Broderick Jones' long-term health? And should we be talking more about defensive line prospects than pundits have been nationally?
