While the Pittsburgh Steelers had quite arguable the best pair of starting wide receivers in the NFL last season—it helps when they both make the Pro Bowl—the departure of Antonio Brown this offseason throws the unit a major curveball. So far, the team has only replaced his productivity with Donte Moncrief in free agency. In spite of that, they are not concerned with where the position stands heading into the 2019 NFL Draft.
“I’m comfortable with the guys that we have in the room at this juncture, but my comfort is not indicative of how it’s going to play out”, Head Coach Mike Tomlin said earlier today during his pre-draft press conference when he was asked about his feelings if the draft board doesn’t break in a way that puts them in a position to add a wide receiver early on.
