    6'4"-290LBs. Fits the size the Steelers like to draft.
    I don't know much about him. Those that do please speak up with thoughts and opinions.


    Watching his 'highlights' he seems more of a run stuffer. There are times when he gets after the QB and hurries throws.


    Just looking in the area of who's available when we pick at 21. More info needed, but looks like a promising prospect.

    TJ Sanders is very much in play. Tomlin loves the SEC and Sanders had one helluva year. Reminds me a bit of Cameron Heyward coming out. He still needs to work on his pass rush reps, mainly counters, along with his consistency. That said, he wouldnt be a bad option for Round One at all.

    there are quite a few DT's that could work for us in this draft. possibly in the 2nd or beyond as well. wouldn't mind the buckeye's jt tuimoloau. he could be a much better demarin leal. the kid is disruptive. strong. quick for 270. 4.68 not the typical interior size but can mix it up with the bigger guys with his strength. :cool:

    Isn't JT an EDGE though?! If that is the case, Landon Jackson from Arkansas would be a much better player to acquire then. Have him bulk up a bit to play the inside.

    they call him an edge but he is in the mold of leal but much stronger and better. i'm pretty sure he can play DE in packages. really good against the run too. he can win with both strength and speed. would be a nice asset. on a side note, Tyleik williams from the buckeye's is another i wouldn't mind seeing here. 6-3 327 4.68 at that size. there are a bunch of buckeye's that would work here. :cool:

    Tyleik has been on my radar long before this season began. The fact that the Steelers went to and scouted so many Ohio State games this year means that there is a good chance that at least two Buckeyes will become Steelers. If Egbuka is one of them, I will be over the moon.

    He only has 7 starts.

    • Limited starting experience with only seven starts, potentially requiring time to adjust to consistent NFL-level competition
