One more series to get us through the summer before training camp begins in almost exactly a month. Inspired by an NFL Films top ten (why did they stop making them?), we’re counting down the ten greatest draft classes in Pittsburgh Steelers’ history.
The focus will be solely on actual drafted players and only what they did in Pittsburgh, not whatever success they may have had with another team. In Part Two, we’ll check out classes #8 and #7.
#8 – 2003 Draft Class (8 Pro Bowls, 4 All-Pros, 1 Hall of Famer)
Notable Selections
SS Troy Polamalu (1st Round)
CB Ike Taylor (4th Round)
The strength and weakness of the class was in its limited number of picks.
