The Steelers are hosting Michigan ILB Junior Colson and Penn State C Hunter Nourzad for pre-draft visits today. They also are bringing in English tackle Travis Clayton, who is a part of the NFL international pathway program. (@FarabaughFB) on X
Interesting. Are the International Pathways players just subject to be drafted like regular college players?
So very in on Junior Colson, depending on where we can get him.
Prior to signing Queen, I wanted us to draft Colson pretty badly, still wouldn’t hate it, but it’s not as big a need as some of our other positions.
Yep. This is good.
Nourzad was only a center for one season so I don’t know if he’s a true center and they should avoid anyone who isn’t a true center.
/s
I think DL is more important than ILB and I’d consider spending a Day 2 pick on the DL (maybe even Round 2) if the right guy is there.
Colson feels like a luxury at this point.
I like Nourzad. He’s not a “man this is a franchise center right now” pick but more of a “we had to go RT, WR, and CB early and now we need to take a shot on center” IMO but I think he has potential.
