🏈 Gennaro Filice of NFL.com tabbed Will Howard as the Steelers’ best sleep pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.

“Like I said above, we all remain on Aaron Rodgers watch, assuming he’ll eventually join this roster. But Howard was discussed as an option for Pittsburgh throughout the pre-draft process, so it wasn’t surprising to see Omar Khan pounce when the quarterback remained available in the sixth round,” Filice wrote. “A physically imposing guy at 6-4, 236 pounds, Howard looks like a Steeler signal-caller. His actual play over four years at Kansas State and one season at Ohio State was uneven, but he certainly finished on a high note, posting sparkling numbers during the Buckeyes’ four-game playoff run to a national title.”

🏈 Stanford wide receiver Elic Ayomanor has the highest upside of any wide receiver outside of Round 2. Ayomanor was selected by the Tennessee Titans at 136th overall (fourth round. The Steelers had a chance to select Ayomanor, but picked Ohio State edge rusher Jack Sawyer at (123th overall) instead.

“If Mike Tomlin never babied you @AB84 NFL would’ve been an after thought. You couldn’t survive anywhere else. The Steelers organization and players allowed you to act crazy. Lucky you never played on my team. You would’ve been dealt with immediately and not by the coach. Facts!” Samuel wrote.
