The Pittsburgh Steelers entered the 2025 NFL Draft on April 24 with six picks over the three-day event and needs at defensive tackle, running back and, yes, quarterback, among other positions. With Shedeur Sanders still on the board at No.

Will Howard, the quarterback out of Ohio State, was the pick for the Steelers. He is fresh off of leading the Buckeyes to a national championship win last year, and his draft stock took a huge rise from where it had been at the start of the 2024 college football season.
