Summary

Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast. The Pittsburgh Steelers rounded out their final picks of the NFL Draft on day 3 by adding a speed receiver in Calvin Austin III, Cam Heyward's brother Connor Heyward, a new linebacker and a fourth quarterback on the roster. Austin's speed makes him not just a slot receiver threat, but a deep threat lining up outside as well, and a potential kick/punt returner. Heyward brings a sturdy fullback who can also add as the team's third tight end, the way he did at Michigan State with decent ball skills and the ability to truck defenders and/or make them miss. The seventh round picks were Mark Robinson, Ole Miss linebacker who looks to make the roster on special teams, and South Dakota quarterback Chris Oladokun, who looks to be the team's fourth camp arm and potentially a practice squad guy for the season.
