CBS Mock Draft Has Steelers Trading Up For A QB

It’s mock draft Monday and CBS’ latest one is bringing some extra flair to the Pittsburgh Steelers’ top pick. In Ryan Wilson’s most recent projection, he not only has the Steelers drafting a quarterback but trading up for one. He has Pittsburgh moving from #24 to #13 in order to draft Alabama’s Mac Jones. Here’s his explanation.
