Nate Burleson Explains Why Steelers Selection Of RB Najee Harris Was Team’s Best 2021 Draft Pick

Was the Pittsburgh Steelers selection of running back Najee Harris in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft the team’s best pick overall? Nate Burleson of ‘Good Morning Football’ believes that’s the case and he gave his reason for thinking that during a Tuesday morning segment on the show.

“But I love Najee Harris,” Burleson said. “That pick, for me, just stands out because he just fits the mold, a bigger back, physical, strong, and we’ve needed a running back to be a something for this team for quite some time. I remember playing against the Steelers and that’s one thing they always had, a running back and great linebackers.
