Dillon Radunz, OT, North Dakota State

This guy is coming out of North Dakota State where he transformed his body. He showed up to this program as a skinny prospect and truly turned himself into something special. He blocked for Trey Lance for years and he finally will pay off his hard work and dedication.

Radunz played nicely against the big boys down at the Senior Bowl and that caught the eye of many NFL scouts. He is expected to go on day two of the draft and that would make a ton of sense for this player. He would be great competition for Chuks Okorafor in training camp for the starting spot on the left side.

The team does need a starting center more desperately so it seems like that should be the pick at 55 as long as there is a center with that value there like a Landon Dickerson, Creed Humphrey, or Quinn Meinerz. This would be another nice option but this team needs to continue focusing on their holes and one or two of these prospects would accomplish that. It should be an interesting second day of the draft as the Steelers got their immediate impact running back but they need to build the line as well to ensure his success.
