Secondly, and finally, the Steelers should take a look at Alabama pass rusher Terrell Lewis. Pittsburgh needs to add more pass rushing talent alongside T.J. Watt and Lewis would be the missing piece they need.

Lewis put together a solid season for the Crimson Tide in 2019, recording 31 tackles, six sacks, and two defended passes. He had an inconsistent role, but that is expected with how much talent Alabama has on their roster. At 6-foot-5 and 250 pounds with his athleticism, Lewis projects well at the NFL level.

While he will need to work on his strength and has a lot of raw talent that needs to be developed, Lewis would be an excellent sleeper pick. Pittsburgh has to rebuild their defense into an elite unit and Lewis would be a step in that direction.
