Mel Kiper Jr. 2018 Mock Draft 3.0: Steelers Select Georgia EDGE Lorenzo Carter

With the 2018 NFL Draft now less than a month away, ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. decided that Wednesday was a perfect day to release his third mock of the first-round. After previously mocking former Boise State linebacker Leighton Vander Esch to the Pittsburgh Steelers in version 2.0, Kiper now has them selecting former Georgia edge-rusher Lorenzo Carter with the 28th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.

Kiper writes:

Yes, the Steelers took an edge rusher in T.J. Watt in the first round of last year’s draft, but I still think this is a position of need.
