The Pittsburgh Steelers put a major emphasis on adding big men and physicality in the 2025 NFL Draft. No selection for the Steelers signifies that more than Iowa defensive lineman Yahya Black, who was the Steelers’ fifth-round pick at No. 164 overall following a trade down with the Kansas City Chiefs.
For Steelers’ head coach Mike Tomlin, he stated after the draft wrapped up in a session with the media that Black is a “big chassis” and reminds him of an F-350 as a run defender, which is something the Steelers emphasized and wanted this offseason.
