According to Over the Cap, the Pittsburgh Steelers are not on track to get any compensatory selections in the 2027 NFL Draft.
The Pittsburgh Steelers received four additional selections in the 2026 NFL Draft with compensatory picks. Pundits expect those extra choices to be a great asset to Steelers general manager Omar Khan.
However, Khan and the Steelers aren’t on track to get any compensatory picks in 2027.
According to Over the Cap, the Steelers have cancelled out their three qualifying CFAs. The team did that with the additions it made in NFL free agency.
Free agents Isaac Seumalo, Kenneth Gainwell and James Pierre leaving set up the Steelers to possibly earn compensatory picks a year from now. But the Rico Dowdle, Jaquan Brisker and Sebastian Joseph-Day signings will likely result in no additional picks for Pittsburgh.
Steelers Depot’s Ross McCorkle argued Tuesday that Khan faced long odds of maximizing the compensatory pick formula this offseason anyway. But no additional draft capital is still disappointing with the Steelers potentially set to search for a quarterback in the 2027 draft.
