Combine ‘Scuttlebutt’ Is Steelers Will Draft Ohio State WR Emeka Egbuka In 1st Round

Before players even weigh-in and run their 40s, there’s Pittsburgh Steelers draft rumors flying around at the NFL Combine. Though no team will turn in their cards for nearly two months, there’s already a consensus on who Mike Tomlin and Omar Khan will select 21st overall: Ohio State WR Emeka Egbuka.

Appearing on 93.7 The Fan Tuesday evening, KDKA’s Richie Walsh hears Egbuka connected to Pittsburgh the way then-Alabama RB Najee Harris was linked to the Steelers ahead of the 2021 NFL Draft.

“I talked to [CBS Sports’ analyst] Ryan Wilson at length today and it seems like the scuttlebutt who they think the Steelers are gonna draft is a Emeka Egbuka from Ohio State,” Walsh told The Fan’s Andrew Fillipponi and Chris Mueller.
