The Pittsburgh Steelers’ 2024 draft class, including WR Roman Wilson, looked good on paper. The problem is they didn’t look quite as good in the training camp. Half the class spent most of the season injured, though those who contributed acquitted themselves well.
The Steelers drafted Wilson understanding that they needed immediate wide receiver help, though. They just traded away starter Diontae Johnson, and only browsed the discount bin in free agency. While they hoped all offseason to land a big fish via trade, they only reeled up a soggy Mike Williams. And that was already too little, too late.
