The Steelers always draft well and this pick is no different. Hightower is a playmaker at linebacker and would’ve been a top 15 pick last year if he came out. The extra year showed that he might not have the athleticism to be an elite backer in the NFL but still has the talent to get the job done. Add this to the fact that the Steelers just cut long time inside backer, James Farrior, and you’ve got a situation where the Steelers are needing to replenish their stellar linebacker unit. If any of those first round corners are still available, I also see them taking a crack at one of them.
