Pauline: Steelers ‘Never Expected’ Zach Frazier To Slide, View WR Roman Wilson Through ‘Lens Of Hines Ward’

Sitting at No. 51 overall in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft on Friday night, the Pittsburgh Steelers were prepared to take a wide receiver to address a major need, but then West Virginia center Zach Frazier fell right into their laps, making the decision rather easy.

According to NFL Insider Tony Pauline, the Steelers were prepared to take Michigan wide receiver Roman Wilson at No. 51 overall in the second round.

Ultimately, the Steelers landed Frazier as he fell, and then turned around and landed Wilson at No. 84 overall, making for quite a haul on Day Two for GM Omar Khan and the Steelers.
