The Pittsburgh Steelers have a huge need at running back and appear set to target one in the second or third round of the 2013 NFL Draft.

"Lately there's been a lot of running backs in the second, third or fourth rounds," said NFL.com analyst Gil Brandt, who worked for 29 years as the personnel man for the Dallas Cowboys. "Guys like Alfred Morris from [the Washington Redskins] was a late-round pick. As [colleges] go away from running the ball like we used to, we're finding more quarterbacks and receivers than developing running backs."

The Steelers have Jonathan Dwyer, Isaac Redman and Baron Batch on their depth chart at running back.
