Golson (5-9, 176), was the 56th overall pick out of Ole Miss. Golson started 33-of-49 games and recorded 136 tackles and 16 interceptions. His 16 interceptions led all NCAA active defensive players and tied for third most in school history. Golson led the SEC with 10 interceptions in 2014, second-most in the NCAA, and tied an Ole Miss single-season record (1949, Bobby Wilson).
The Pittsburgh Steelers have now signed four of their eight draft selections.

I don’t know if he is a 2nd round talent, but I’ve learned not to doubt the Steelers scouts.
