Steelers shock everyone with first receiver taken in latest 2025 NFL mock draft

The Pittsburgh Steelers have the worst wide receivers room in the NFL, and it was on full display to close out the season. While there are questions around what they’ll do with George Pickens, as well as who their quarterback will be, whomever it is needs better weapons – which leads us to Daniel Jeremiah’s first mock draft.

The NFL Draft expert has the Steelers taking Texas wide receiver Matthew Golden in the first round.

“I don’t think the Steelers could go wrong drafting Golden or Ohio State’s Emeka Egbuka here. They go with Golden in this case, but they are both professional route runners with outstanding hands and toughness.”

The Steelers passed on Egbuka, as well as Missouri’s Luther Burden III in Jeremiah’s mock draft, but as he pointed out, Golden has worked himself into the discussion as best wide receiver in the draft.
