As we delve into the Pittsburgh Steelers offseason, our attention has now shifted to the 2016 NFL Draft as it relates to the prospects. From now until the draft takes place, we hope to profile as many draft prospects as we possibly can for you. Most of these player profiles will be centered around prospects the Steelers are likely to have interest in.
#45 – Deion Jones/LB LSU: 6-1, 219 (Senior Bowl measurements)
The Good
– Absorbs blocks well for a guy his size
– Works through traffic
– Surprising power against OL for a smaller guy
– Great play recognition, jumping flat routes based on what he’s seen before from the offense
– Good vision of the backfield, committing downhill against run.
