Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Wes Uhler of Steeler Nation Radio.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have had bad luck picking cornerback in the past several years of the NFL Draft. But Joey Porter Jr. is different. Between his size, skills, and pedigree in how the Steelers see him compared to previous picks like Artie Burns, Porter could be the draft pick that finally gives the Steelers a top flight cornerback they develop on their own, and redefines the position for years to come.

But will Joey Porter Jr. be the most impactful of the NFL Draft class? That question was asked by a caller and the answer is given by Chris Carter and Wes Uhler of Steeler Nation Radio. If you had to pick one hall of fame player in this draft class, who would it be?

Finally, where would Kenny Pickett have been picked in the 2023 NFL Draft class with quarterbacks like Bryce Young, C.J. Stroud, Anthony Richardson, Will Levis and Hendon Hooker? That question leads to ranking Pickett among the class, and wondering if the Steelers would've still been able to take him, or if Pickett would've been a top five pick.
