Steelers 7-round mock draft: OL and LB rebuilt instead of QB

Steelers round 4:

I really wanted to get a receiver earlier than this, and specifically, I wanted to get one that can move around in the slot and be a Deebo Samuel-type of weapon. When that didn’t happen, Romeo Doubs became a hard player to pass on in the fourth round. He was a premier deep threat for Carson Strong while in college and should excel in that role as a professional.

Doubs is your classic deep threat that can function in essentially any offense. While he won’t test with blazing speed, he is plenty fast enough to win deep. As well, he actually runs routes well despite his college routes favoring streaks. He is good with the ball in his hands as well, making him a threat on screens and short passes.

He struggles with his hands at times, something most casual Steelers fans are likely very tired of, but his upside is hard to pass on. While the team would still be missing their slot receiver, that could be addressed with either Chase Claypool moving inside or adding a free agent there. While Doubs is limited in terms of what type of player he will become (he will essentially always be a deep threat), he can be a functional starter for any offense.
