All NFL teams should have some young talent, and the AFC North powers are no exceptions. Who should the Steelers and their divisional counterparts draft?

In every NFL draft, there is a plethora of promising talent looking to graduate up to the professional football level. But just because some players are wanted does not mean that they are needed. It is worth remembering that just because a name is intriguing to some teams doesn’t mean that every team will have a shot at snatching it.

The AFC North franchises are in no way exempt from this concept. All four of them have needs (some of which are similar), and they do not share the exact same opportunities to get just anyone that they have their eyes on.

However, I have done the duty of establishing just one prospect that each AFC North power could potentially get their hands on if such options were available. Some of the following names are bigger than some others, and not all of them may make sense right off the bat.

But nonetheless, each player listed here today has the ability to make his assigned team better in an area where they need some serious work, and that is the entire point of them being up for grabs to begin with.

So without further ado, here is one NFL draft prospect for each AFC North team that could help cover up a world of hurt for seasons to come.
