When it comes to the NFL Draft, if there’s one thing the Pittsburgh Steelers love, it’s bloodlines. If you’re the son or brother of someone who played on Sundays, the Steelers have you on their radar. That story plays out in ESPN’s 2025 too-early mock draft, giving Notre Dame CB Benjamin Morrison to the Steelers 13th overall.
Off the top, fans won’t be happy about the Steelers picking so high. Having the 13th selection would be Pittsburgh’s highest choice, excluding trade-ups, since 2004 when the team took QB Ben Roethlisberger 11th overall. Author Matt Miller didn’t project the order himself, leaning on ESPN’s Power Index to project 2024 standings.
