The Pittsburgh Steelers are making moves, and the latest buzz suggests they're eyeing a significant jump up the board. Following the news that Utah offensive tackle Spencer Fano is in for a pre-draft visit, our latest mock draft simulation has Pittsburgh executing a trade with the Los Angeles Rams to secure the 13th overall pick and select the versatile lineman.

Fano represents a major upgrade for the Steelers' offensive front. He's viewed as a day-one starter capable of filling multiple roles, providing crucial flexibility. If Broderick Jones isn't ready to begin the season, Fano can step in at tackle. If Jones is good to go, Fano could slot in at right tackle, allowing Troy Fautanu to move to left guard, or he could compete for the guard spot himself. This kind of adaptability is gold for an offensive line.

But the Steelers' draft haul in this projection doesn't stop there. The simulation also brings Tulane wide receiver Jha'Quan Jackson to Pittsburgh, adding a dynamic, field-stretching threat who excels in the slot and works tirelessly on every route. To address the tight end room, the Steelers select Old Dominion's Zack Kuntz, a towering, athletic "dual-threat" who can contribute as both a pass-catcher and a blocker.

Further bolstering the roster, the mock adds depth at cornerback with Mississippi State's Decamerion Richardson, a long, fast defender, and brings in a developmental, big-bodied quarterback in Tennessee's Joe Milton III—a prototype built for the AFC North's rugged weather. The later rounds focus on adding valuable depth pieces: Nebraska running back Anthony Grant, Clemson defensive lineman Tyler Davis, and Auburn edge rusher Derick Hall, all offering potential and value to round out a class aimed at immediate impact and future development.
