When people hand us content to add to the site it always comes with an added bit of excitement, and a quality dose of sandbagging by me. Sheeeeeet, apologies to the Faulk boys but the NFL Draft is now only 9 days away so let the Mock Madness Begin!
Some names I adore from below – I firmly believe Travis Ettiene is the best back in this class. I love Harris and I think Williams has an extremely bright future, but I just love Ettiene at the next level. Paulson Adebo is a wonderful late round grade for any team and I’m still surprised he didn’t come out last year. Also, Shaun Wade. I know he got absolutely burnt when it mattered, but a great round 3/4 snag. Keep an eye on Paris Ford as well, I think the Steelers like taking Pitt guys when it makes sense and Ford could be a serviceable grab. Well done Faulk boys!
Tyler Faulk’s 2021 Steelers Mock
24 – Travis Ettiene RB
1st round RBs are risky but the Steelers made the point to meet with him first. If he’s there, get him.
55 – Quinn Meinerz IOL
Senior Bowl standout, he’s versatile to replace Pouncey or Decastro in the future
87 – Paulson Adebo CB
Steelers could have targeted last year if he entered. High IQ, potential starter.
128 – Patrick Jones II DE
Pitt workhorse who has a motor. Great rotation player for TJ & Highsmith
140 – Tre Walker WR
What’s a Steeler draft without a playmaking WR. Tre helped San Jose start 9-0 and could a secret weapon.
216 – Aaron Banks G
OL depth. Good size, can learn from Decastro.
245 – Quintin Morris TE
Speedy, receiving tight end. Mini Ebron
254 – Ian Book QB
Established college QB that could fire up Mason / Haskins.
