Joey Porter Jr. trade puts a glaring Steelers need in focus for 2027 NFL Draft (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Early Thursday morning, the Pittsburgh Steelers traded cornerback Joey Porter Jr. to the Dallas Cowboys for a 2027 sixth-round pick and a 2028 second-round pick. In doing so, Pittsburgh is trading away its number one outside corner going back to his rookie year in 2023. Porter's length and physicality made him an ideal man corner for Pittsburgh who could match up against the league's best wide receivers. With Porter gone, cornerback is going to have to become one of the Steelers' focuses when it
Max Iheanachor showed why the Steelers made him a first-round pick (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Through two weeks, the Pittsburgh Steelers had one of the NFL's worst offenses, with the right side of the offensive line playing a major role in those struggles. Ahead of Sunday's game, Pittsburgh elected to make changes to that side, including inserting first-round pick Max Iheanachor as the team's starting right tackle. And the rookie came to play and responded with exactly the type of performance Pittsburgh hoped to see when it invested a first-round pick in him. The Pittsburgh Steelers draf
NFL Mocks Watch: Would teams pass on Jeremiah Smith for a QB in the 2027 NFL Draft? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jeremiah Smith walked into the 2026 season as the best non-quarterback prospect for the 2027 NFL Draft. That is another way of saying he might be the best player in the entire class. But because he's not a quarterback, the assumption has been that he won't go first overall.

Smith's performance on Satu
Colts may have no choice but to rebuild their defensive line in the 2027 NFL Draft (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Indianapolis Colts may be short a first-round pick in the 2027 NFL Draft, but that doesn't mean they can't give their defensive line a much-needed facelift. The last time the Colts made major investments in their defensive line over multiple years was in 2020 and 2021. They traded for DeForest Buckner during the 2020 NFL Draft and then selected Kwity Paye and Dayo Odeyingbo with their first- and second-round picks the following year. Since then, it's been a fourth-round pick used on Adetomiw
Eagles could find the answer to a looming O-line problem in the 2027 NFL Draft (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Just a few seasons ago, the Philadelphia Eagles had the best offensive line in football. But with age and coaching changes, that group looks significantly different in 2026. Future Hall of Famer Jason Kelce retired after the 2023 season. Then, following the 2024 season, starting guard Mekhi Becton left in free agency. And after last year, we began to have long-term questions about multiple other starters. Starting right guard Tyler Steen is an unrestricted free agent next spring. Another future
