With Derrick Harmon, the Steelers have now taken two defensive linemen in the first two rounds in the past three years. After drafting Keeanu Benton in the second round in 2023, the Steelers added Derrick Harmon in the first last night. Especially with Cameron Heyward up there in age, they are hoping this is a duo that lasts a long time.

“I think we got two quality young players that are hopefully gonna play a long time together and have a great deal of success”, HC Mike Tomlin said of Harmon and Benton, via the Steelers’ website.
