Next up, Julian Love (CB) Notre Dame.
The Steelers secondary is their Achilles heel, that much is known. Cornerback Joe Haden can not guard both sides of the field and Artie Burns has not developed into the cornerback the team had hoped for quite yet. Notre Dame's Julian Love is an extremely talented player and he could be a great fit for the Steelers in the future.

Love has fantastic ball-hawking ability and his game could speak volumes in the right system. Love could be the answer for the Steelers in regards to finding a complement for Haden and finally providing some further cohesion in the secondary. Love's coverage abilities have been well documented and his ability to tackle in open field is significant as well.
Check out some of Love's highlights below.
The Draft is set for Thursday, April 25th at 9pm EST and will run through Saturday, April 27th, 2019. You can catch it on the ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, and NFL Network stations.
