Episode Details

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Mike DeFabo of the Athletic.

The Pittsburgh Steelers made it clear their top pre-draft research was into wide receivers and offensive linemen. But could their plan for an early pick be a secret plan to get a playmaker defensive back? Christopher Carter and Mike DeFabo discuss what defensive coordinator Patrick Graham said about Jalen Ramsey last week, and why that might be a clue to the type of defensive back the Steelers really want. But could it be a top safety like Caleb Downs, Dillon Thieneman, or Emmanuel McNeil-Warren? Or a top cornerback like Colton Hood, Jermod McCoy or Keionte Scott? Also, Chris and Mike discuss the recent trade where the New York Giants sent defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence to the Cincinnati Bengals for the tenth overall pick in the NFL Draft. Did the move make the Bengals a more dangerous team in the AFC North? And why could that move hurt the Steelers' chances to draft a top receiver like Carnell Tate, Jordyn Tyson or Makai Lemon? Finally, it's the last Mock Draft Monday of the season. Who won?
