He's 5'11, and not a TE or an RB. Let's say he is a good fullback ( that remins to be seen ) he's going to seldom see the field. With his lack of speed I don't see him adding much to special teams either. Just why waste a pick? There are plenty of rookie Fullback free agents. I think a S or OL player would make a better pick.
The Heyward pick. Why?

The Heyward pick. Why?
Tomlin hasn't won a playoff game in seven years and counting. The earliest will be eight years. I guess that in Art Rooney's II, opinion is worth a 3 year extension.
Our 2024 draft looks to be grade A. Our 2023 draft is an A. The roster is talented, but Mike Tomlin is still the head coach.
*** Mike Tomlin is the best coach since the AFL- NFL merger that has not won a playoff game in 8 seasons or more. It's either him or Lewis. ***Tags: None -
He'll be a special teamer.
And an emergency couple of other things.
But mostly a ST guy on all 4 teams. -
He's probably the Kalen Ballage replacement as far as the roster spot goes. Competent runner, competent receiver, competent STer. Not a bad guy to have at the bottom of your RB depth chart in theory.
I suppose they could cut Derek Watt but I'd be surprised.Comment

I assume the Steelers drafted him because of his versatility at the collegiate level. Only time will tell what position he will play at the professional level.Comment
