Could Steelers strike gold with another former TE turned offensive tackle?

INDIANAPOLIS -- The Steelers have had some success taking former college tight ends who moved to offensive tackle and turning them into success stories, the most recent being Alejandro Villanueva.

The next in that line could presenting himself to the Steelers in this year's draft, as Central Michigan's Bernhard Raimann is expected to be an offensive tackle taken somewhere in the latter part of the first round.

The team could have more of a need there in coming weeks if right tackle Chuks Okorafor is not re-signed in free agency.
