5 NFL draft sleepers for the Steelers on Day Three
The Pittsburgh Steelers are in a great spot with seven picks in the first 100 in the 2026 NFL draft. The team also have seven more picks after those first 100 picks and they could prove to be quite valuable. We do expect some of those Day Three picks to end up being use to move around on the second day but there will still be picks to be made and here are five sleepers on the third day for the Steelers to consider.
QB Mark Gronkowski - Iowa
While we do expect Aaron Rodgers to eventually sign with the Steelers, Pittsburgh is definitely going to address quarterback in the draft. We like the prospect of bringing in Iowa's Mark Gronkowski to see if his dip in production from 2023 to 2025 was just a product of so little offensive tackle on the Hawkeyes' offense and if his traits match his measureables.
G Bill Schrauth - Notre Dame
An MCL sprain limited him in 2025 but in the right system, Schrauth has starter potential at either guard spot. We still don't know what head coach Mike McCarthy is going to do on offense with the offensive line but if he opts for a gap-heavy system, Schrauth brings a lot of upside.
WR Kendrick Law - Kentucky
Law was originally a big-time commit by Alabama, and so don't let the fact that he excelled at Kentucky let you forget that. Law has a sturdy frame and is exciting to watch after the catch, and the stopwatch backs up his quickness as well as his long speed. Without the pressure to play a huge role as a rookie, Law could flourish.
CB Ephesians Prysock - Washington
Tacario Davis is the Washington cornerback that pundits talk about, but don't sleep on Ephesians Prysock. He doesn't have the polish to his game that Davis has but all of the upside is there. Prysock is just as much of a freakish athlete and has ridiculous NFL measurements.
DL Deven Eastern - Minnesota
The Steelers have several defensive linemen as free agents right now and we don't see any of them coming back. This means multiple defensive lineman could be on the agenda in the draft and as a late-round guy, the length and upper-body power to develop into a rotational 3-4 defensive end.
