Steelers Depot

● By Scott Pavelle
I must have flip-flopped on this Round 1 pick 193 times. Should it be CB Joey Porter Jr., or an Offensive Tackle? Back and forth, forth and back. On the one hand, Porter is a worthy player at a premium position. This draft has a lot of those, but Porter carries extra value on the hearts and smarts front. Early round Corners bust out for one of two reasons: injury, or an above-the-neck limitation. The Steelers know Joey Deux so intimately that it isn’t a risk at all; just a bright line “yes” or “no.” I also rank the desire for a premium Corner higher than the desire for a Tackle. As I see things, the Steelers could easily go into the 2023 season with Moore and Okorafor as the starters, though I’d hope to see a Tackle picked anyway to serve as developmental depth. I understand that many will disagree, but you do you and I’ll do me.
