The Pittsburgh Steelers 2013 NFL Draft is done and in the books and now with Blades of Grass to cover OTA's are next up. Assessing the 2013 Steelers NFL Draft from Round 1 to Round 7:

2013 Steelers Draft Class 

Round Player School Position

1 JARVIS JONES Georgia OLB

2 Le'VEON BELL Michigan State RB

3 MARKUS WHEATON Oregon State WR

4 SHAMARKO THOMAS Syracuse S

4 LANDRY JONES Oklahoma QB

5 TERRY HAWTHORNE Illinois CB

6 JUSTIN BROWN Oklahoma WR

6 VINCE WILLIAMS Florida State LB

7 KYLE WILLIAMS Samford DT

The Steelers get their Man at #1 in @SacManJones_29 as he had 28.5 Red Jersey Collections in Two Season in the SEC.

Bell was the Best RB in the Big Ten in 2012 as the Columbus, Ohio Native is only 21 years of age with plenty of Tread on his Tires.

Markus Wheaton "Fast is Faster than your Fast" as he will give the WR Corp a Deep Threat and help in the Kicking Game

Thomas is being compared to former Iowa Hawkeye and Colts/Bolts S Bob Sanders and his Ball reminds me of former Steelers Safety Tyrone Carter when Carter tore up the Big Ten playing for the Gophers.

Jones was a Top 10 QB in 2011 and then he fell back into the Pack but has some ability as the Steelers obviously could take a chance on a Science Project in the Pocket.

Hawthorne was the Illinois; Bowl Game MVP as he is definitely a Zone-Cover Corner and is a little stiff in the Hips.

Brown was productive at Boomer Sooner as he caught passes from Jones and played opposite of 2013 Boomer Sooner WR and 5th round pick Kenny Stills who went to the Saints

Vince Williams is from Backer "U" and the 'NOLES had ate least 6 draft picks in 2013 off that 2012 Defense...as the 'Noles and Georgia Bulldogs were stacked on "D" in 2012.

Kyle Williams led that charge upfront from Small School Samfpord but geting a 3-4 DE with an Upside is what your looking for in Round 7.

Overall Grade B+....with Impact Players by 2013 or 2014 in Jones, Bell, Wheaton, and Thomas and hidden gems maybe Vince and Kyle Williams
