<p>The Pittsburgh Steelers had Jason Worilds suddenly retire while the Sun is setting on the great career of James Harrison. So the Steelers need that guy that can come of the edge and raise H-E-double hockey sticks for opposing offenses. So they took 6’4″, 269-pound Alvin Dupree, a typical defensive lineman sized outside linebacker the Steeler like but he runs a 4.5 40.</p> <p>In the second round, the Steelers selected 5’9″ 176-pound cornerback Senquez Golson. He may be undersized but he’s a good football player that had 10 interceptions to lead the nation in college in 2014. The Steelers definitely had needs at both positions and got good football players in both spots.</p> <p>The Steelers have an explosive offense as it is with quarterback Ben Rothlisberger and running back Leveon Bell. So a couple of defensive players here and there and they could take it to the next level in 2015. They also got speedy receiver Sammy Coates but the Steelers have plenty of receivers so we’ll see what happens there.</p>. OLB. Kentucky. Alvin Dupree. 1. player. 55
