Less than a week from the 2026 NFL Draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers would be wise to take a chance on one Day 3 prospect who's been drawing comparisons to 49ers superstar running back Christian McCaffrey.
Eli Heidenreich, a versatile playmaker who's excelled at fullback, running back, and wide receiver for the Navy Midshipmen, could be available when Pittsburgh makes a few of their Day 3 draft picks.
Here's a look at Heidenreich's scouting report, containing information on his bio, strengths, concerns, stats, and highlights.
Ball security is outstanding (one fumble since 2023)
Note: Eidenreich also recorded 109 receptions for an astonishing 1,994 yards and 16 touchdowns from 2023-2025.
