FINAL Steelers mock drafts: DENZEL BOSTON is Ray Fittipaldo's pick? Does he fit with DK Metcalf?

On the Tuesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to analyze picks from his final seven-round mock before the 2026 NFL draft begins. Why did Ray go with receiver Denzel Boston as the first-round pick, despite size that overlaps with what DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman Jr. already offer GM Omar Khan and coach Mike McCarthy? Is Keylan Rutledge closing a clear second-round value at guard? Does Treydan Stukes offer the versatility the secondary needs alongside Joey Porter Jr., Jalen Ramsey and Jamel Dean? Why would Antonio Williams be worth double dipping at receiver for? Is 6-foot-9 Travis Burke ideal insurance on Broderick Jones later in the third round? And why is Carson Beck the QB Ray settled on compared to other projected mid round picks like Drew Allar, Cole Payton and Taylen Green? Our duo tackles those questions, then sorts through Ray's Day 3 picks, including TE Marlon Klein, DL Darrell Jackson Jr., LB Jack Kelly and LB Nadame Tucker. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
