The Steelers need serious help on the offensive line. Marcus Gilbert will likely slide to the left tackle position this season, but there's no guarantee that experiment will work out. The only player who has earned his role on the line is Maurkice Pouncey. Glenn is surprisingly nimble for carrying such a large frame, and has the ability to play multiple positions on the offensive line. Pittsburgh could use him at right guard or right tackle, or move him around in rotation. They could also consider Dont'a Hightower with this pick given the need for another starting inside linebacker, which would make sense given the Steelers' penchant for drafting quality defensive players to groom for a year or two behind seasoned veterans.
