CBS Sports currently has four new one-round mock drafts up by four different writers and we want to compare how each pundit views the first round for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

We can appreciate a pick that goes off the script and opts for the team's legitimate top need and goes with an offensive tackle.

The trend of the best cornerback on the board is all over these mock drafts.

The legacy pick here for the Steelers and the fourth cornerback off the board.

Another cornerback pick for the Steelers but on the word of most experts, Witherspoon is the best fit for the Steelers and either the first or second cornerback on most boards.
