Are Steelers using Mean Joe Greene to tease Andrew Billings pick?

PITTSBURGH -- Steelers great "Mean" Joe Greene went to Baylor, attended Baylor's pro day with the Steelers, and now he's at the Steelers headquarters for Thursday night's NFL draft.

The connections begged the question, even a purely speculative one: Is Greene here because the Steelers plan to draft Baylor defensive tackle Andrew Billings with the 25th overall pick?

I asked Greene this and he chuckled, calling Billings a good player but there's "no connection" to his draft presence. He's just here enjoying the festivities.

Billings is one of several defensive tackles who are possible targets in the late first or early second round.
