The 2024 NFL Draft is now fully in the books, so it is time for all of the instant reactions, draft grades, and other analysis to start trickling in from the major draft analysts. Live on the NFL Network broadcast of the event, a pair of draft analysts offered up their favorite picks of the draft, and both named Steelers picks.
Daniel Jeremiah started things off with NC State LB Payton Wilson, who went to the Steelers with the No. 98 overall pick in the third round.
“I look at a guy like Payton Wilson, the linebacker from NC State who was a first-round player, had unbelievable tape, won every award you can win in college football,” Jeremiah said.
