— UrinatingTree (@UrinatingTree) April 25, 2026 Daniel Jeremiah rated Gennings Dunker as the 63rd best player in the draft.

Mel Kiper Jr had him as the 72nd best player in the draft.

And the Steelers got him with pick 96.

That's excellent value.

— Andrew Fillipponi (@ThePoniExpress) April 25, 2026 Gennings Dunker is the 4th (!!) Iowa Hawkeye drafted by the Steelers in the last three (3) NFL Drafts.

Of the 19 total picks Pittsburgh has made since 2024…

Four (4!) have come from Iowa. pic.twitter.com/nZWF94qS5f

— Ben Stevens (@BenScottStevens) April 25, 2026 Bold take: I think there's a better chance Gennings Dunker starts week 1 than Max Ihenachor.

— Andrew Fillipponi (@ThePoniExpress) April 25, 2026 Gennings Dunker was born to be a Steeler.

Love this move, and to get him at 96 is unreal value.

— Josh Carney (@ByJoshCarney) April 25, 2026 The @steelers just got a lot NASTIER inside with Gennings Dunker out of Iowa. 6’5” 319lbs of raw power and nasty disposition. His 38 starts comes with leadership and a lineman who can help this offense dictate the flow of the game for the next decade.#NFLDraft#RG3#OuttaPocket… pic.twitter.com/LNxl9xT7OW

— Robert Griffin III (@RGIII) April 25, 2026 Newest Steelers draft pick Gennings Dunker tossing bales of hay 12 feet in the air 😂😂

Real Steeler

— PickensBurgh 🫡 (@PickensBurgh) April 25, 2026 Shocked Gennings Dunker almost fell out of Day 2, but the Steelers are getting a terrific player.

That mullet will look very good in Pittsburgh.
