It looks like ESPN NFL draft writer Matt Miller has been reading my posts on X. I’ve been on the record very loudly that I would be good with the Pittsburgh Steelers going all Buckeyes in the first two rounds of the 2025 NFL Draft.
Miller put out a new mock draft this week leading up to the Super Bowl and after the Senior Bowl wrapped up and he went offense-heavy for the Steelers and all Ohio State.
In the first round, Miller went with wide receiver Emeka Egbuka. We agree wholeheartedly with Miller’s assessment of Egbuka and why he is a perfect fit for Pittsburgh.
Moving to the second round, Miller doubles down on Buckeyes and goes with running back Quinshon Judkins. Again, it’s a perfect fit for a rebuilding Steelers offense that needs a playmaker in the backfield.
I’m good with Egbuka and Judkins as Steelers next season.

I’d even take it a step further and if the Steelers wanted to draft Ohio State quarterback Will Howard in the third round, we could live with that as well.
