At the draft combine, Pittsburgh’s conversations with a top prospect add another layer to a week that already has scouts and execs reading body language like it is a second job. These meetings rarely tell the whole story, but they do tell you who is being taken seriously. For a team trying to thread the needle between now and later, every handshake matters.
