There are few former Pittsburgh Steelers more beloved than linebacker Ryan Shazier. A big part of that was because Shazier’s stellar career was cut short after just four seasons. Shazier suffered a neck injury at the end of the 2017 season that ended his career on a trajectory that would have made him one of the all-time greats.
In this scenario, if the Steelers do pass on Shazier, the pick for us would be edge defender Shaq Barrett, who fits the Steelers’ defense much better. But in the big picture, with the notion of the future, it would be tough to pass on offensive tackle Taylor Lewan.
