Pittsburgh is adding late-round depth to round out its offensive line room and potentially add a backup behind Mason Cole. At Maryland’s Pro Day, he weighed in at 6050, 309 pounds with 32 1/8-inch arms. He ran a 5.18 40 and put up 29 reps on the bar with a 30.5 inch vertical.
Anderson will compete for a final roster spot or try to make it on the practice squad. He’ll battle former third-round pick Kendrick Green and Ryan McCollum for a final spot along with a likely host of undrafted free agents.
Spencer Anderson was drafted with pick 251 of round 7 in the 2023 draft class. He scored a 9.37 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 90 out of 1423 OG from 1987 to 2023. https://t.co/9rNp7xHMze pic.twitter.com/45yRS07gpE — Kent Lee Platte (@MathBomb) April 29, 2023
The Steelers are done for the draft. They’ll now look towards free agency to fill the rest of their 90-man offseason roster.
