Since Maurkice Pouncey retired following the 2020 season, the Pittsburgh Steelers have struggled to find a leader at the center position and a true leader offensively. Pittsburgh could find that leader in the 2024 NFL Draft, particularly in Duke offensive lineman Graham Barton.
Barton, who was an official pre-draft visitor to the Steelers Tuesday ahead of the NFL Draft, brings plenty of leadership and experience to the table as a draft prospect. Tuesday’s official visit added another layer of intrigue and speculation to a possible fit in Pittsburgh, especially with the Steelers needing a center following the release of Mason Cole in late February.
