Two former players will announce selections for the team during the 2025 NFL Draft. Hall of Fame receiver Lynn Swann and former defensive end Brett Keisel are scheduled to participate in the announcement process for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Lynn Swann will announce the team's third-round pick during the draft. He is scheduled to be on site in Green Bay, Wisconsin, which is hosting the draft event. https://www.profootballnetwork.com/lynn-swann-2025-nfl-draft-steelers-pick/
Swann was a first-round selection in the 1974 NFL Draft. That draft class included four other future Hall of Fame players the Steelers selected or signed. Swann played his entire nine-year career with the team, winning four Super Bowls.
Brett Keisel is slated to announce one of the Steelers' picks on Day 3 of the draft. Unlike Swann, Keisel will not be in Green Bay. https://steelersdepot.com/2025/04/brett-keisel-to-announce-day-three-draft-pick-from-ireland/
Keisel will make his announcement from Croke Park in Ireland. This location coincides with the team's plan to play a regular season game at Croke Park during the 2025 season. The team is also hosting a draft party in Ireland.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell will announce the Steelers' first-round pick. Tom McCormack, recognized as the team's International Fan of the Year, is also expected to announce a Day 3 selection from Dublin, Ireland. https://www.steelers.com/news/swann-keisel-to-announce-draft-picks
The Steelers hold six picks in the 2025 draft. The team's picks include one selection in the first, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh rounds.
Keisel, a member of two Super Bowl winning Steelers teams, was originally a seventh-round draft pick by the club in 2002.
"I love that team. I'm so grateful that they drafted me in 2002," Keisel said.
