The Pittsburgh Steelers love to run the ball. That’s not changing under new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. How they do that might change, but the emphasis on a high-quality run game is still there. So the Steelers need to have a darn good offensive line to make sure the running backs have a good start to every play. Then you also need to protect your quarterback, whether it’s Russell Wilson or Justin Fields. So the Steelers selected Washington OT Troy Fautanu with their first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft
Former Steelers executive Doug Whaley is a fan of Fautanu.
