For the Pittsburgh Steelers Day One of the 2020 NFL draft was completely uneventful. The team was able to sit back and spectate the whole event heading into Friday when the action starts for them. Fortunately for the Steelers, thanks to the trade that brought them Minkah Fitzpatrick, they didn’t have to worry about technical difficulties in the new virtual draft format.
But what is going to happen today in the second and third rounds? Here are some predictions.
A safety in the second round
It seems the league decided as a whole not to draft any safeties in the first round. This means when the Steelers go on the clock with the No. 49 overall pick, they could have their choice of defensive playmakers. The Steelers have one of the top safeties in the league in Minkah Fitzpatrick but there could be a shot to adds starting-quality third who might eventually replace Terrell Edmunds.
