I don't usually post mocks but this one is the first that I've seen us going WR in the first so here it is.........

18. Pittsburgh Steelers
Demaryius Thomas, WR, Georgia Tech

Holmes is gone and there really isn't enough talent in the receiver group to avoid taking a pass catcher high in the draft. The Steelers like Mike Wallace, but Hines Ward is aging and Limas Sweed is struggling. Thomas is a big athlete with close to 19 yards a catch in a triple-option offense in college.
Still available: Kyle wilson, Dez Bryant (Thomas is the first WR taken here), Iupati, Pouncey.

52. Pittsburgh Steelers
Kareem Jackson, CB, Alabama

After solving their new receiver issues in the first round, the Steelers get the much-needed corner here. Jackson comes from the Alabama Cover-2 scheme and possesses solid tackling skills.
Still available: Tyson Alualu, Patrick Robinson, Toby Gerhart, Vladimir Ducasse, John Jerry.

82. Pittsburgh Steelers
Alex Carrington, DE, Arkansas State

Carrington has the traits the Steelers look for in a "five-technique" defensive end: Tall, long arms and speed. He's a steal in the third round.
Still available: Matt Tennant, Brandon Spikes, Navorro Bowman


An interesting way to go anyways. A few here have been lobbying against OL early so we address a weapon to replace Holmes right away, the much needed CB and then a future replacement for our aging DL.
