2026 NFL Draft: Steelers Day Two mock draft

The first night of the 2026 NFL Draft is in the books and the Pittsburgh Steelers left the fans scratching their heads. The team was fully prepared to draft USC wide receiver Makai Lemon when the Philadelphia Eagles went up and poached him, leaving the Steelers to reach for project offensive tackle Max Iheanachor.

But despite the concerns with Day One, we move on to Day Two, where the Steelers currently have four picks and plenty of roster holes to fill. Here is our updated Day Two draft.

Second round - G Emmanuel Pregnon - Oregon

Pregnon is an older rookie with six years in college which could be why he slid but make no mistake, he's a massive force of nature at guard who plays with elite power. His game improved a great deal at Oregon in 2025 and his improvements in hand usage and agility make him an easy pick here.

Third round - WR Bryce Lance - North Dakota State

One of the most explosive vertical threats in the draft, Lance would be a great option to bring in to allow DK Metcalf or Michael Pittman Jr. slide inside while Lance pulls the safeties out of the box with his speed. He didn't have a ton of chances to put up big reception numbers at NDSU but his 21 yards per catch is elite.

Third round - WR Will Lee III - Texas A&M

Lee is a long, rangy lockdown cornerback who is fluid in his lower body who slides in this draft because he lacks elite speed and acceleration. But as his technique improves, his need to play catch up with receivers diminishes and let's him be a three-down coverage player.

Third round - DT Darrell Jackson Jr. - Florida State
