The Steelers ended day one with just one player, as they traded their second-round pick, which was the 64th overall pick, to the Broncos. Denver used that pick to select TE Richard Quinn.
In return, the Steelers will have more picks on Sunday than they thought. They get two Broncos third-round picks (79) and (84). The Steelers also give Denver their fourth-round pick (132).
So with all that went down Saturday, here’s the picks that the Steelers have for Sunday:
1st Round: 32nd Pick – “Ziggy” Hood
2nd Round: 32nd Pick (64th overall) – Traded to Denver
3rd Round: 32nd Pick (79th overall) – From Denver
3rd Round: 32nd Pick (84th overall) – From Denver
3rd Round: 32nd Pick (96th overall)
4th Round: 32nd Pick (132nd overall) – Traded to Denver
5th Round: 32nd Pick (168th overall)
5th Round: 33rd Pick (169th overall – Compensatory Pick)
6th Round: 32nd Pick (205th overall)
7th Round: 17th Pick (226th overall – from Tampa Bay)
7th Round: 32nd Pick (241st overall)
So the team will be one of the busiest in the league Sunday, with a whopping 8 picks, three in the third round.

YES! the only problem that I had with the Draft so far was our first round pick. So, thats almost the entire draft. What we needed was a O lineman but no! we just really needed another hitter in the trenches. I thought that we should have either gotten a center or a left tackle.
