Steelers updated 2026 NFL Draft needs

The Pittsburgh Steelers offseason kicked off with the resignation of Mike Tomlin and hasn't let up since. Now the Steelers are less than two weeks to the start of the 2026 NFL Draft and there's still more work to do. The team has made some huge changes on the roster via free agency and trade which forced us to make some changes in our top four draft needs.

One big caveat here. No quarterback in our top draft needs. With Aaron Rodgers eventually showing up and Will Howard having the support of head coach Mike McCarthy, we've taken quarterback off our list completely.

1 - Offensive guard Replacing Isaac Seumalo was a top priority heading into the offseason and the Steelers didn't address it. We aren't opposed to Spencer Anderson starting the season at left guard, but long-term, his value is as a reserve who can play multiple spots. The top of the draft has four guards who we see could come in and start Week One to address this need.

2 - Wide receiver You might think trading for Michael Pittman Jr. fixed the wide receiver issues but it didn't at all. NFL teams need at least three starting-caliber receivers, which is why we have a wide receiver here.
