Steelers Take Explosive WR in ESPN Mock Draft

The Pittsburgh Steelers land one of college football’s best wide receivers in a new mock draft.

PITTSBURGH — As the 2023-24 NFL season set to hit the home stretch, the Pittsburgh Steelers are still right in the thick of the playoff race but it’s never too early to start thinking about who they might add in the offseason.

ESPN draft insider Matt Miller has done just that in his first Mock Draft of the winter and predicts that the Steelers will land the leading receiver from Washington’s FBS-leading passing offense, Rome Odunze, with the 14th overall pick.

Diontae Johnson’s contract expires at the end of 2024, so there’s room for Pittsburgh to add a physical, downfield threat with elite after-the-catch ability to the depth chart,” Miller said. “Odunze has been the WR1 at Washington for three seasons, catching 25 touchdowns in that time while proving himself to be one of the most physical wideouts in college football.”

Odunze has caught 81 passes for 1,428 yards and 13 touchdowns along with 37 rushing yards and a score on the ground this past season. He was a consensus first-team All-American, All-Pac 12 first-teamer and Biletnikoff Award finalist in 2023.

Miller believes the addition of Odunze could give the Steelers a wide receivers corps that can stack up to any of the best groups in the NFL.

“The 6-foot-3, 215-pound Odunze could pair with George Pickens to form a duo that would rival Cincinnati’s WR group in the AFC North,” Miller said.
