Steelers Shock with Trade, Grab Tyson & Simpson in Mock Draft

The Pittsburgh Steelers trade up in a CBS Sports mock draft, picking Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson at 32 and selecting Arizona State receiver Jordyn Tyson at 21.

In the latest CBS Sports mock draft, the Steelers package picks 53 and 76 to move up to 32 and secure Alabama signal‑caller Ty Simpson. They also use the 21st overall pick to select Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson, who posted 136 catches for 1,812 yards and 18 touchdowns last season.

Tyson was projected as a top‑10 pick before injury concerns pushed him to 21. Simpson, a polarizing prospect with high upside but limited starting experience, could become a key part of Pittsburgh’s future offense. The trade reflects the Steelers’ aggressive strategy as the 2026 draft approaches.
