Study: What The Steelers Look For Drafting Outside Linebackers (2022)

Moving on ahead with our 2022 Pittsburgh Steelers “what they look for” study. Today, we’re checking out the 2022 EDGE rushers and see who fits best based on how the team has drafted in the Mike Tomlin era.

2021 brought a new EDGE name to the list too with sixth rounder Quincy Roche, though he’s already no longer a Steeler, claimed by the New York Giants at final cutdowns last summer. Here’s Roche and every other EDGE rusher the team has drafted since 2007. Our 2022 criteria, which has changed, will follow.

2021: Quincy Roche

Height: 6025
