It's early and they have 25 more visits to schedule. I think the Depot or some other site said it's more important to watch which Pro Days Tomlin and Khan attend. Usually a telltale sign (except last year when they virtually ignored KP pre-draft).
Only because they knew him thoroughly from sharing same facilities.

yes. Alex noted for 1st round picks. Watch the pro days they both attend or how it worked in the past.
And watch the position coaches visits on day 2 of the draft
I don't understand the single minded focus on the off LIne. Does anyone really think the Off Line is in worse shape than our ILB position of the middle of of DL? Compared to those two positions, the OL is well stocked and a fine tuned machine. The OL got better as the season went on in 2022. Both ILB and our NT situation got worse.
Here here- you are the only bright one in the bunch.

Your teasing me now when you say Brian Urlacher. LOL. I don't want an ILB who gets overwhelmed in the wash trying to make a tackle because he's too little. No more of those guys please.
What are you talking about? Our MLB's are the same size as other MLB's around the league. You have to have athletic ILB's because the offensive lineman are more athletic and a lot of teams run wide zone. The idea that your going to put some big stocky linebacker on the inside and he is going to stop the run is laughable. I said a thousand times. If you want a run stopper invest in a NT who can wreck a game or eat up double teams.

I think you guys miss the point. That focus is all about where in the draft the positions are selected. If punter was the biggest need, you wouldn't be talking first rounder.
If you're discussing 1st rounders and all of the NT and ILB are projected rounds 2-4, that doesn't mean that you're ignoring them (see my sig)
Obviously, there are always exceptions in guys that are perceived as generational talents. And there's always a Tom Brady or Antonio Brown who breaks the mold of what is typical and shows up in the 6th round - but generally speaking, the really good OT goes before the really NT.
One of the top college prospects who is quite familiar with the Steelers’ practice facility on the South Side is on site for a pre-draft visit Thursday. North Allegheny grad and Penn State cornerback Joey Porter Jr. is a visitor at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex as the Steelers continue
Porter, Dawand Jones, Banks with first three picks and I'm in heaven. Could have a dominant secondary AND OL built in one offseason.
Honestly, I'm excited about this draft because there are so many needs (especially on defense).
Team Needs Offense: OT, maybe WR or TE... They don't need a RB, the interior o-line seems fixed and they have a QB. Defense: EVERYTHING. They literally, could use NT (starter), DE (depth, future starter), ILB (starter), OLB (depth), CB (depth, future starter), S (starter)
It kinda opens it up where they don't have to reach if you truly can take BPA, at least on one side of the ball. Just take the most impactful player. Periodt

I'd double up on one position with their top 3 picks and make one position group elite. If you get that 3rd pick right you can make another elite.
