The Pittsburgh Steelers hosted Illinois wide receiver Arrelious Benn, Texas safety Earl Thomas and SMU wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders for visits today, the team announced.

Benn has drawn some first-round grades and is an imposing target at 6-foot-1, 219 pounds.

Sanders caught 98 passes last season and averaged 13.8 yards per punt return.

Thomas is one of the fastest-rising draft prospects. He intercepted eight passes last season, returning two for touchdowns.

The Steelers have completed 28 of their allotted 30 predraft visits.
