Chris Carter here in the Locked on Steelers podcast.

We got Nick Farabal on.

Do the Steelers A go for one elite prospect with a big trade-up or do they go for two premium prospects?

We talk about that here and a lot more on the Locked-on Steelers podcast.

Let's get into.

There's no better place that you'd want to be than right here as we talk up some NFL draft stuff. Now, Mike McCarthy did address some things in his press conference yesterday about the offseason program. We'll get to to that in a bit in a little bit and plenty of things we'll talk about sneaky day two value guys but the big thing I want to talk to Nick about is I got my new top 100 big board which will be out for the Pittsburgh Post Gazette today broken down into positions and we talk about tiers in that I want to talk about the two tiers that I have my eyes on that the Steelers need to

capitalize on one or double up on the other.

And that's elite to premium.

Elite players, we're talking top 12 players, 13 players max, premium players, that 13 to 14 range

down to like 30-ish as far as a big boy, not necessarily just the players that get drafted,

but where we value them.

Nick, there's been a lot of talk that there's not a whole bunch of blue chippers in this draft class.

But is there a player or two that you view as an elite prospect that could fall within the range of a reasonable Steelers trade-up?

And is that player worth what will be eventually not getting two players that can be in that premium range we're talking about? Yeah, I mean, I don't know that we're going to see a lot of them fall just because you talk about lack of blue chippers. Well, instead of taking guys that might be lesser, I think a lot of teams are just going to take the studs. And so I think, you know, guys like Caleb Downs and, you know, others that maybe would fall in others just because they play an on premium position are probably just going to go earlier this year. So to me, you're not going to see a ton of guys' fault. But there are two guys, I think, that makes some sense that could fall within the range. Vengueiawane, I consider him part of that group.

I think he can be there for them in a reasonable trade-up. I still don't see him getting 21. I think there's too many. I think you're going to move up for maybe as high as 13. Does he just go 14 to the Ravens? I think it's very possible. That's where he goes. He could go earlier than that. I mean, I think that the Giants now with two first-round picks,

10 are a very real shot.

He could be earlier than that. I mean, I think that the Giants now with two first-round picks at 10 are a very real shot. He could be a top 10 pick. So we'll see where he goes. The other guy that I think is potentially going to fall. And I thought it was going to be Jordan Tyson. It doesn't really seem like, doesn't seem like Carnot Tate's going to fall very far. But McCoy Lemon might.

And I think that's the one guy you look at that I screams trade up scenario to me is McClellan. And if you can get him at 13 or 15, I think that is a good honeyhole sweet spot where you're not going to have to give up a ton of draft picks.

You have 12 of them. So you're not burning every bit of midday kind of draft capital you have. And he's a guy that would transform your wide receiving core into a really potent group. You have a completely different style of player from D.K. Metcalf and Michael Pitman, Jr. that he is. I know some people think he's very

slot-specific. I think he can play outside enough to where they can have that position flex
