How high will the Steelers draft a running back?
The Steelers are bound to draft a running back, and potentially very early, if you read the tea leaves. They have visited with just about every top running back in the draft, including two more yesterday. While they didn’t bring in Ashton Jeanty for a pre-draft visit, they would surely have him in their top 21.
But would the Steelers draft a running back in the first round, and if so, under what conditions? The thing is, while Jeanty might not be available then, a lot of the other backs they looked at probably won’t be available by their third-round pick.
