ESPN: Cornerback Remains Steelers’ Biggest Hole Following Draft

The Pittsburgh Steelers lost a lot of talent this offseason, whether it was through retirement, free agency, or the cost of remaining compliant with the salary cap. Among the departures were Bud Dupree, Steven Nelson, Mike Hilton, Alejandro Villanueva, Maurkice Pouncey, Matt Feiler, and Vance McDonald, with the outside linebacker, offensive line, and cornerback positions all being hit hard.

In some form or fashion, the Steelers addressed all of them in the 2021 NFL Draft. Along the offensive line, they selected interior lineman Kendrick Green in the third round and tackle Dan Moore Jr. in the fourth. Quincy Roche was drafted in the sixth round to come off the edge.
