Mean Joe Greene To Announce Steelers' First-Round Draft Pick
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- The Pittsburgh Steelers have some special stars lined up to announce their first three picks in the 2019 NFL Draft.
The team says the legendary Mean Joe Greene will be on hand in Nashville to announce their first-round draft choice on Thursday night.
Greene himself was the Steelers' No. 1 draft pick in 1969.
He says he will have some advice for whoever the Steelers pick.
"I will be sure to let him know that this is the best organization in the National Football League. It is good top to bottom. That is what you are looking for. To have a genuine organization that gives you the opportunity to succeed and have fun. That is the bottom line. To succeed and enjoy yourself," Greene told Steelers.com.
