2026 Projections
Signed a four-year contract with the Steelers in May of 2026.
Grabbed by Steelers
The Steelers selected Everette in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 85th overall.
ANALYSIS
Everette (6-foot-1, 196 pounds) put together quality tape as a three-year starter for Georgia and did additional favors to his draft stock at the NFL Scouting Combine, where he logged a 4.38-second 40-yard dash time. Pittsburgh is well-stocked at cornerback, with Joey Porter having been joined by Jamel Dean in free agency, and Asante Samuel re-signing as a capable depth option. While Everette could have difficulty earning a consistent role early in his NFL career, he also may receive the luxury of a developmental window to realize the upside provided by his speed and frame.

Made most of first-team reps
Everette matched up against DK Metcalf regularly during offseason practices, Brooke Pryor of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Joey Porter didn't practice much as he seeks a new contract, so that allowed Everette to take on additional reps. A third-round pick out of Georgia in the 2026 draft, Everette was able to break up several passes intended for Metcalf and generally impressed the coaching staff. He is likely to begin the season as the Steelers' fourth corner, but Jamel Dean and Asante Samuel, two players ahead of him on the depth chart, have extensive injury histories.
