During their bye week, the Pittsburgh Steelers are focusing on potential picks for the 2027 NFL Draft. Currently atop the AFC North, the Steelers have a well-regarded quarterback prospect in CJ Carr from Notre Dame lined up as their first-round selection. Carr is noted for his football intelligence and mechanics, which could make him a valuable asset for head coach Mike McCarthy. Other key targets include Lance Heard, a tackle from Kentucky, and linebacker Tony Rojas from Penn State, both of whom are expected to bolster the Steelers' lineup significantly. As the draft approaches, team needs and potential trades could further shape their strategy.
