Welcome to the Steelers Eli Heidenreich

Mine, too. Had him in my last mock & was hoping we could squeeze him in. Not a bad use of a late pick.

 

Fantastic Steelers!

 

Love it!

 

I will not be surprised to see him on Kickoff return duties immediately.

 

Wetjen Punt returns. Kickoff returners are more RB than WR.

 

Put both back there!

 

It feels like he can do the things people talked about Wetjen being able to do on offense, which might make the Wetjen pick even worse.

 

Im rooting for him!!

 

I like the whole draft. I would have preferred Hurst and orange in the 3rd over allar and the cb, but i understand why they took them

 

Always cool to see a service academy player get a chance.

 

You need a snickers

 

It does create redundancy for sure.

 

Thank you for playing please try again later

 

I will assume you have never seen an NFL kickoff or Punt return.

 

You still trying to figure out ogunjobi’s physical

 

YAAAY

camp fodder


NOPE

JUST WASTE



HI 5 KHAN!!!

 

I like the player and it's good value. The issue I have is why? They already drafted a slot WR. I can't see him being a RB in the NFL.

 

It's the last round. He has good hands and a great work ethic. My problem is we drafted two slot WRs, perhaps three with Wetjen.

 

COUGH

 

I like the wetjen on my hardwoods

and no need for a lemon glow

 

No, I still believe.....

As far as this pick, I believe it was Fake, or Staged for TV ratings.

I ask this in the Live draft thread, but why would a 200+ prospect be all dressed up in the Green Room waiting for a team to select him in the 7th round???

I believe the NFL Network, and the City of Pittsburgh set this up, so they could have a "Made for TV" feel good moment at the 2026 Draft.
