I’ve tracked the progress of the Steelers’ draft classes for the past few seasons. I compare Steelers rookies picked in the first three rounds against their contemporaries drafted in nearby rounds and playing similar positions selected by other teams. We’ll track Troy Fautanu, Zach Frazier, Roman Wilson and Payton Wilson to see how they stack up with their contemporaries over the next few seasons.
We start with players performances at the NFL Scouting Combine or Pro Days listed here. Not sure if it is a trend, but several players opted not to participate in all the drills. I have links to each player’s draft profile so you can compare how the Steelers Depot staff evaluated everyone.
