Steelers Draft Surprise Star Iheanachor
Description
The Steelers just snagged a surprise first-round steal with Max Iheanachor, the 21st overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. At 6’6” and 320+, he’s a massive, surprisingly fast tackle who ran a 4.91 forty-yard dash. He didn’t even play football until college—he grew up in Nigeria playing soccer and picked up the sport at 13 in Compton. Despite only being in the game a few years, veteran tackle Dylan Cook says he’s “primed” and “ready,” praising his quick learning and eagerness to improve. The coaching staff and teammates are already buzzing—this might be the Steelers’ hidden gem.
