PFF Flags Four Steelers-Linked Prospects as Buyer-Beware Picks

Pro Football Focus labeled four Steelers-connected 2026 NFL Draft prospects—Drew Allar, Zachariah Branch, CJ Allen, and Tacario Davis—as 'buyer beware,' citing concerns such as Allar's big-game shortcomings and injury, Branch's heavy reliance on after-catch/short-area work, Allen's suspect coverage and undersized frame with limited testing, and Davis's inconsistent production despite elite size and speed; with 12 Steelers picks, Pittsburgh could pursue development paths for these players, including a potential rookie-year sit behind Aaron Rodgers and learning under coach Mike McCarthy.
