Summary
Steelers GM Omar Khan’s draft strategy is paying off big time as Zach Frazier and Troy Fautanu—both now viewed as first-round talents—could’ve been selected even higher than Pittsburgh’s actual picks. Frazier, a second-rounder, jumped to 17th in a redraft, while Fautanu, originally 20th, slid to 28th but still landed in the top tier. With Pro Bowl potential and solid rookie seasons (despite injury setbacks), they’re already shaping up as cornerstone starters. Plus, other young players like Payton Wilson and Mason McCormick are stepping up, making this draft class one of the most impactful in recent memory—even with just one top-50 pick.
