Pat Kirwan Advocates For Steelers Drafting Tackle, Says One Piece Could Have OL ‘On Its Way Back To The Way It Was’

The Pittsburgh Steelers have two established starters at the tackle positions along their offensive line, with each starting every game for which they were healthy in the past two seasons. Dan Moore Jr. on the left side has started all but one game in his career since being drafted in 2021. Chukwuma Okorafor moved into the starting lineup in 2020 and has also only missed one game since then.

And yet there is so much talk about the Steelers potentially drafting a tackle as early as the first round—maybe even trading up from 17 to get one. I wouldn’t expect them to do that unless they really fall in love with one.
