The 2024 NFL Draft is in the books. For Omar Khan, another solid Pittsburgh Steelers haul. But in the middle of the offseason with the next game still months away, I admit I’ve missed my weekly “stats of the weird” post. In its place, to hold us over, are some “Draft Stats of the Weird” to put into perspective the team’s 2024 class.
– I’ll start with the offensive line. I can’t take credit for these stats but they’re important. The Steelers drafted three o-linemen with their first five picks for the first time since 1976, when they drafted Ray Pinney in the second round, James Files in the second round (they had three second-round picks that year), and Ron Coder in the third round.
