Leading up to the 2024 NFL Draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers had seemingly placed a clear emphasis on building through the trenches, addressing the offensive line in a major way under GM Omar Khan and assistant GM Andy Weidl.
They accomplished that, landing the likes of offensive tackle Troy Fautanu, center Zach Frazier and guard Mason McCormick in the first four rounds, adding talent and snarl in the trenches.
All three ended up starting games for the Steelers in 2024, with Frazier the best of the bunch. Though Fautanu missed much of the season with an injury and McCormick missed the playoff loss to the Baltimore Ravens with a broken hand, the future appears bright along the offensive line.
