Markus Wheaton

Well, I was right the Steelers would go receiver in the third round; just wasn't the guy I thought would be there. The Steelers grabbed 5'11 189lbs Oregon State product, Markus Wheaton.


Now, he's not Mike Wallace speed wise but I think he has much better hands. Hell, your local Fed Ex guys has better hands then Wallace. He is explosive and a dangerous deep threat. He has trouble with press coverage but he is a great prospect the Steelers can mold.

Over his time at Oregon State his numbers got better and he became a much bigger part of the Beaver offense; 675 yards as a Sophomore, 986 yards as a Junior and 1,244 yards as a Senior.
