Browns way-too-early 53-man roster projection after the 2026 NFL draft finishes
Cleveland Browns unveil way-too-early 53-man roster projection after 2026 NFL draft.
The Pittsburgh Steelers selected Navy running back Eli Heidenreich with the 230th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Heidenreich, compared to Christian McCaffrey, is known for his versatility as a rusher and pass catcher.
The Pittsburgh Steelers have done the unthinkable to close out their seventh-round draft picks on Day 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft ā selecting a talented, playmaking running back who has been compared to San Francisco 49ers All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey.
With the 230th overall pick in the draft, the Steelers selected Navy running back Eli Heidenreich, an excellent finish to what has been a strong Day 3 haul.
Heidenreich, a Pittsburgh-native who set a Navy school record for the most receiving yards in a single season (941 in 2025), possesses an elite skill set as both a rusher and a pass catcher, as well as possessing outstanding traits as a blocker.
With positional versatility that any offensive coordinator could only dream of, Heidenreich now joins a Steelers running back room featuring Jaylen Warren, Rico Dowdle, and Kaleb Johnson.
