The Steelers selected Wisconsin DT Keeanu Benton with the 49th overall selection in this year's draft. Benton stands at 6'4 315 lbs. In his last two seasons starting at Wisconsin, he tallied 60 tackles, 7 sacks, and 15 TFL. Tough player with upside. Let me know what you guys think of the pick below, and thanks for watching!
I think this was a tremendous pickup for the Steelers. Benton is a monster DT, he has the athleticism, size and power to be a great DT in the NFL. Yeah he has leverage and hand placement problems at times, but that can be learned through further training on the next level. I feel the Steelers will get the best out of him. They needed help on the DL and they may have gotten it. He could be a difference maker the Steelers been lacking for years.
Keeanu Benton is the NT we’ve been missing in Pittsburgh the past few years. We got more really great rotational DLmen and he could someday in a few years be the successor to Cam Heyward. Him and Demarvin Leal
People dog him about his sack numbers, but he was a nose guard in a 3-4 pro style defence. Not a traditional spot for sack machines since they are facing double teams all the time. I bet you he’s better than Leal and will eventually be a starter. And Loudermilk I just don’t see it with him, and Cam is no spring chicken
Another solid pick by the Steelers. Benton has a ton of upside and kinda reminds me of Javon Hargrave when he was coming out of college. Don't think he'll start but he'll provide some much needed depth
The way he EXPLODES off the line after getting off his block is Michah Parsons esc. We’ve been looking for this type of player since Hargrave left. Omar Khan was WORKING this draft
He proved me wrong for sure, I watched him a bit in highschool and I thought he was way over hyped. They just have awful coaching their so they make their players look like ass
Don’t forget the additions we made on the Dline in free agency right now we don’t really need an interior guy maybe a DE OLB hybrid but that’s about it

1:58 3 people blocking him and still gets the sack dawg
I grew up in Pittsburgh and remember the glory years, " Keeanu Benton" Make the Steelers Great Again!
This man is a monster

Welcome to Pittsburgh, Steelers love their badgers
that play where Benton powers through 2 Minnesota lineman (one being John Michael Schmitz) to get to the QB, has me excited
He's going to be a beast!!!
Great draft so far. I’m impressed. Pray for health🙏🏿
Yes
Is that a triple team? start play at 1:59
Was that Loudermilk, as in Loudermilk the one we drafted, as his former teammate? 👀
Yes
And herbig
We love Wisconsin players TJ Isaiah now keeanu
Do the undrafted free agents next! Love the videos!
best part is he’s got cam and ogunjobi as mentors, once he gets technically sound 😮💨
This dude lives in the backfield lol. Menace. Hope he’s able to transition well!
Cam 2.0
The way he EXPLODES off the line after getting off his block is Michah Parsons esc. We’ve been looking for this type of player since Hargrave left. Omar Khan was WORKING this draft
I can't wait for this season to start.
between him and herbig I'm feeling good about these next 3 or so years
We all know what happens when the Steelers selects players from Wisconsin 😎 TJ Watt
Line them up line them up 😮😮😮😅 sic man this dude is
If he’s single blocked; he kinda does the cam move; stick the arm out n just bully style push him out the way the way you want to go lol.
The next Casey Hampton!!!!!! Ancor !!! Beast.
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Him and Loudermilk played together.
Waw es formidable el tipo
I was like “did my man just force a fumble with his ass?” Butt fumble part two ✌🏽
Tj watt & bru finna eat
Welcome to Pittsburgh Benton ! #SteelCity
KB has the potential to be a starter
Call me crazy but benton reminds me a lil of KC DE/DT Chris Jones
He proved me wrong for sure, I watched him a bit in highschool and I thought he was way over hyped. They just have awful coaching their so they make their players look like ass
Just needs to take up space and eat up blocks
just saw loudermilk
Rough pick.
Not crazy about draft so far.luv Benton and porter .Jones is a project.washington is a freak but would like to see d line address
Jones allowed 0 sacks last year and has 0 holding calls in his entire college career in a power conference. Not bad for a “project”
Don’t forget the additions we made on the Dline in free agency right now we don’t really need an interior guy maybe a DE OLB hybrid but that’s about it
