55. . Cornerback. Georgia. DeAndre Baker. 20. player

The Pittsburgh Steelers have plenty of questions to answer this offseason, with the first being what they plan to do with All-Pro wide receiver Antonio Brown. Brown was benched for the team’s Week 17 game, one they needed to win and get help in order to make the playoffs, and it seems the ties to the team are too severed to put back together.

The crazy thing about the Steelers season was how bad it got so quickly, as they looked like a shoo-in to make the playoffs at the midway point. They ended their season by losing to the entire AFC West, including the Denver Broncos and Oakland Raiders, and would end up watching the Baltimore Ravens go home with the AFC North title.

With the Brown issue on the side, we take a look at the other side of the ball, where the team needs to be better against the pass next season. They need to add another cornerback to team with veteran Joe Haden, and a guy like DeAndre Baker from Georgia would make a ton of sense at No. 20 overall.

Some believe Baker is the best cornerback in this draft class, and it will be interesting to see where he falls on draft night. The Steelers likely did not expect to be picking this early in round one, but they have to take the pick where it comes, and they may be able to get a legitimate starting cornerback in the first round in April.
