The team also tested new defensive pairings, separating veteran units to evaluate rookies like Oliver Bonk and David Jiricek.

Steelers 2026 Draft Fallout: Defensive Winners Emerge Amid Depth Battles

An assessment of the Steelers’ 2026 draft shows a defensive group with clear winners (Keeanu Benton, Malik Harrison, Cole Holcomb, Patrick Queen, Carson Bruener, Christian Kuntz, Cam Johnston) and a cadre of potential losers as new picks heighten competition at corner and safety. Daylen Everette’s third‑round selection complicates roles for Asante Samuel Jr. and Brandin Echols, while Cory Trice Jr., Donte Kent, Sebastian Castro, Robert Spears-Jennings, Logan Lee, and Esezi Otomewo battle for limited spots. The arrival of Gabriel Rubio and the re-signing of Dean Lowry further intensify depth battles. The takeaway: the fallout emphasizes depth and competition more than an immediate veteran starter impact.
