Our second draft study into recent Pittsburgh Steelers draft trends. Yesterday, we looked how often the team went outside the Combine to select a player. Today, we’ll go in a different direction with a very simple premise: what has been the ratio of defensive to offensive players drafted under Mike Tomlin? The last couple years at least, it’s felt like more defense than offense for the obvious fact that the defense was being rebuilt. But what do the numbers say? We’ll go year-by-year, noting the number of players on each side of the ball taken.
