Shiny new toys.
That’s what the Steelers have been accused of drafting the past few years.
The Steelers were accused of that in some circles when they selected receiver Chase Claypool in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft.
Pittsburgh was definitely criticized for its shiny new toy fetish after selecting running back Najee Harris and tight end Pat Freiermuth in the first and second rounds of the 2021 NFL Draft. You can also throw in the selection of punter Pressley Harvin III because the drafting of a punter or kicker never has a good ending if he doesn’t turn into an elite player.
