The Pittsburgh Steelers traded up to No. 10 overall in the 2019 NFL Draft, acquiring the pick from the Denver Broncos.
Pittsburgh surrendered its first-round pick (No. 20), second-round pick (No. 52), and a third-round selection in 2020 to jump up the board. The Steelers subsequently drafted Michigan linebacker Devin Bush.
The Steelers last traded up in the first round for a defensive player in 2003 when they climbed to No. 11 to take safety Troy Polamalu, who made eight Pro Bowls and helped deliver two Super Bowl titles to Pittsburgh.
The Steelers-Broncos deal marked the first trade of the 2019 draft.
