Pittsburgh Steelers: Mid-round wide receiver is a need, even if it’s not

There is no need for the Pittsburgh Steelers to draft a wide receiver. Their big three on top of Justin Hunter, a healthy Vance McDonald and a likely Eli Rogers return doesn’t leave much room for a rookie.

Pittsburgh’s going to draft a wideout, though. Whether it’s the fifth or seventh, the Steelers are going to add another man to their rotation in the passing game. Why? Because they like to.

The Steelers love to find the mid-round wideout to add to their mix. Whether it’s Antonio Brown, Eli Rogers, Martavis Bryant, Pittsburgh uses at least one pick on a receiver, and more times than not, it’s a worthy move.
