Penn State TE Pat Freiermuth was selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers with the 55th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.

Footballguys View: Freiermuth is a big-bodied tight end who can box out smaller defenders. He gets called ‘Baby Gronk’ by some on Draft Twitter but that’s a lofty comparison. Freiermuth is your classic ‘Y’ tight end as he can thrive as a blocker and a receiver. He’s used to a heavy target load, and the Steelers would be wise to integrate him fully into the offense.
