Study: What The Steelers Look For Drafting Defensive Ends (2024)

We’re continuing our 2024 version of the “What the Pittsburgh Steelers look for” draft study with this year’s group of prospects. So far, we’ve checked out the offensive tackles and wide receivers who best fit based on historical benchmarks over the Mike Tomlin era, 2007 to present.

Today, we’ll switch over to the defensive side of the ball with the defensive ends. Not nose tackles, but the d-ends. An area Pittsburgh’s looked at in the draft in the hopes of getting younger and better depth up front.

We’ll look at the team’s previous picks, examine our criteria, and see how it matches up.
