Pro Bowl left guard Isaac Seumalo left the Pittsburgh Steelers for the Arizona Cardinals in free agency this offseason, but luckily, the 2026 NFL Draft is packed with capable replacements.
From premium first-round picks to seventh-round sleepers, here’s a look at one guard the Steelers can select in each round of the 2026 NFL Draft.
First round: Olaivavega Ioane, Penn State
The Steelers have been heavily linked to Ioane throughout the draft process, and while they may need to trade up a few spots to secure the talented guard prospect, there may be no better fit in the draft.
Second round: Chase Bisontis, Texas A&M
A highly underrated guard out of Texas A&M, Bisontis may fall right into the Steelers’ lap during the second round of the draft. Steadily improving in pass protection every collegiate season, Bisontis may be the most complete option the Steelers could acquire on Day 2.
Third round: Jalen Farmer, Kentucky
Farmer may be one of the most physical guard prospects of his class, a perfect fit for the Steel City brand of football. A force in the run game, Farmer would slot nicely into the Steelers’ left guard vacancy.
Fourth Round: Billy Schrauth, Notre Dame
While Schrauth carries some injury concerns heading into the draft, the Steelers cannot afford to pass up this exceptionally talented pass protector at fourth-round value.
Fifth round: Jeremiah Wright, Auburn
Violent in the run game, Wright is at his best when imposing his will upon defenders. Possessing outstanding upside as a physical guard, the Steelers would be wise to take a chance on this developmental prospect.
Sixth round: Kobe Baynes, Kansas
Owning one of the biggest wingspans of the 2026 guard class, Baynes typically enters most blocking opportunities with an instant advantage over defenders. Pass blocking has been a real strength for Baynes, while his nastiness and physicality in the run game also serve as major selling points.
Seventh round: Micah Morris, Georgia
What Morris is lacking in experience, he makes up for with raw talent and athleticism. While there are some glaring red flags, like his pad level and hand placement, his intangibles make him an interesting seventh-round option for the Steelers.
