A mock draft for the Pittsburgh Steelers was produced by a human and compared with an algorithm for the 2027 NFL Draft. In the first round, the human selected S Tae Johnson from Notre Dame, while the simulation picked TE Jamari Johnson from Oregon. The human opted for TE Trey'Dez Green in the second round, with the algorithm favoring QB Drake Lindsey from Minnesota. By the third round, the human chose LB Chris Cole from Georgia, contrasting with the simulation's pick of Indiana S Amare Ferrell.
