Derrick Harmon projected to join Pittsburgh Steelers in draft

Defensive tackle Derrick Harmon from Oregon is expected to be drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers next month. He is projected to be the first player from Oregon selected in the NFL draft. Harmon had a strong season, making 45 tackles, which included 10.5 tackles for a loss. He also recorded five sacks, four pass breakups, and forced two fumbles. His impressive performance continued at the NFL combine, where he showcased his skills. Mel Kiper Jr. from ESPN believes Harmon is a good fit for the Steelers, especially since their veteran player Cam Heyward is getting older. Kiper mentioned that the Steelers have already added a wide receiver, allowing them to focus on other needs, such as defense. During the NFL combine, Harmon met formally with both the Steelers and the Kansas City Chiefs, indicating that he is on their radar. The draft will take place next month, and many are eager to see where Harmon will land.
