The Pittsburgh Steelers pick 21st in the 2025 NFL Draft, and it looks like the top positions that they are likely to address with their first pick are either wide receiver or interior defensive lineman.

In a class that is incredibly deep on the defensive interior, the Steelers will have their selection of players to choose from and have a solid chance of landing a big difference-maker. One of those names that has been linked to Pittsburgh as a potential pick is Kenneth Grant out of Michigan.

The former Wolverine had 32 tackles and seven tackles for loss in 2024, as well as three sacks en route to becoming one of the top prospects at his position in this class. While every prospect will meet with just about every team during Combine week, Grant did confirm he already had a meeting with Pittsburgh this week, and he gave a nice review of head coach Mike Tomlin.

Grant called Tomlin a “cool dude” and said while he may have an intimidating presence to some, he is a “really chill guy.”

With it being likely that the Steelers will take a defensive tackle early in the draft, Grant could be the name they call if he is on the board and he is a name to keep an eye on through this draft cycle.
