Steelers Likely To Shy Away From Red Flags In The Draft

Prediction: even though they may have done it in a different year, the Pittsburgh Steelers will shy away from players with question marks in this draft, including the first round.

And yet the Steelers have brought in two first-round potential draft picks for pre-draft visits, both of whom have said question marks, and both of whom are at need positions on defense, namely outside linebacker and cornerback.

Cornerback Marcus Peters is a talented player—there are some who believe that he is the most talented cornerback in the draft, even if he is not the best physically in any specific category—but there are legitimate concerns, obviously, about the way that he handled himself last year, getting himself kicked off the team.
