The Pittsburgh Steelers are facing a potential cornerback shortage as their starting cornerback Donte Jackson is only signed for one season. The team traded wide receiver Diontae Johnson to the Carolina Panthers in exchange for Jackson, but there has been no news of a contract extension for him. This situation highlights the importance of addressing the cornerback position in the 2025 NFL draft.
ESPN NFL draft writer Matt Miller believes that cornerback is a top need for the Steelers, and with the No. 13 overall pick, he selected Notre Dame star cornerback Benjamin Morrison. Miller emphasized the need for a long-term, high-upside running mate for Joey Porter Jr., as both Jackson and Cameron Sutton are considered short-term solutions. Morrison, with a track record of nine interceptions over two starting seasons and 13 pass breakups in 2023, was seen as a valuable choice.
While there were wide receivers on the draft board, Miller felt that Morrison was a better pick given the team’s pressing need for a cornerback. He did mention Isaiah Bond as a potential standout receiver in the draft class, hinting that he could rise in the rankings before the draft. Ultimately, Miller believes that Morrison is the right choice for the Steelers to address their cornerback situation effectively.
