Before the Pittsburgh Steelers traded for WR DK Metcalf, draft prospect Emeka Egbuka was receiving a lot of attention. That chatter has nearly faded entirely from existence…but not quite completely. Some still believe the Steelers could take a wide receiver in the first round, even with Metcalf.
While Gerry Dulac didn’t address the position as a whole, he did say that he doesn’t believe the Steelers would draft Egbuka 21st overall after trading for Metcalf. “I doubt it”, he said in response to a question in a recent chat session, “but I can tell you I really like him as a perfect fit for the Steelers and a perfect complement for Metcalf when [George] Pickens is gone”.
