There’s little doubt a safety is in the Draft plans for the Pittsburgh Steelers but who and where in the draft are major questions. Stanford’s Justin Reid checks a lot of the boxes the Steelers usually like. With a safety likely drafted, the plan to get the rookie on the field seems to be at free safety, moving Morgan Burnett to the “dime backer” or “dollar” linebacker spot to be a force against the run and to cover tight ends in the dime formation.
