One of the defining legacy of Kevin Colbert as a general manager (or equivalent) with the Pittsburgh Steelers was the consistency of his track record in the first round. While he did not routinely hit home runs, solid doubles and triples were the norm. Rarely did he strike out, and not until 2013.
The 2012 draft was one of his better first rounds, landing All-Pro guard David DeCastro, who evidently has now retired, largely due to injury, after the team released him last season following an MRI that revealed he would need surgery.
A decade on, however, Adam Rank argues that they could have done better, authoring a 2012 redraft exercise in which the Steelers come out of the first round with a different guard to plug and play into their starting lineup: Brandon Brooks.
