The Steelers have agreed to terms with Cameron Heyward, their No. 1 draft pick.

Heyward, a defensive end out of Ohio State, is the son of former Pitt star Craig "Ironhead" Heyward.

Heyward (6 feet 51/2, 288 pounds) is the second defensive end drafted on the first round by the Steelers in the past three years and their third consecutive lineman. They took defensive end Ziggy Hood No. 1 in 2009 and center Maurkice Pouncey last year.
