The Pittsburgh Steelers are loaded with worthy candidates for best draft pick ever, including a No. 1 overall pick in 1970 who quarterbacked four Super Bowl wins. But defensive tackle Joe Greene, a fourth overall pick in 1969, was the catalyst for the golden era of Steelers football.
Why Greene is the best draft pick in Steelers history: Put 10 NFL experts in a room and ask them to jot down their top 10 NFL players of all time. Greene would probably appear on at least a few lists. Greene is considered by many as the best Steeler ever.
