NFL Media analyst Bucky Brooks has projected Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson and Penn State offensive guard Vega Ioane as future All-Pros. Both players have been frequently linked to the Pittsburgh Steelers in mock drafts. The designation highlights their high potential amid the team's needs at receiver and offensive line.
NFL Media's Bucky Brooks named Jordyn Tyson and Vega Ioane among seven players projected as future All-Pros in a recent analysis. Tyson, who played under Steelers legend Hines Ward at Arizona State, has drawn mock draft connections to Pittsburgh due to the team's receiver needs. However, injury concerns, including a hamstring issue that sidelined pre-draft workouts, have tempered his stock; he has never completed a full college season but plans a team workout on April 17. Vega Ioane, meanwhile, addresses the Steelers' offensive line vacancy left by Isaac Seumalo's free agency departure. At No. 21 overall, Ioane could compete with Spencer Anderson and Brock Hoffman for a starting role, though doubts exist about his availability that late. Brooks' projection underscores Ioane's upside, backed by a scouting grade of 8.9, near All-Pro caliber. The Steelers hold 12 draft picks, the NFL's most, offering flexibility to trade up if needed. Pittsburgh has not selected a first-round All-Pro since T.J. Watt in 2017. Receiver and offensive line remain the most-mocked positions for their top choice, with both prospects carrying high ceilings if they overcome hurdles like Tyson's health and Ioane's play against smaller defenders.
