May 3 is the deadline for teams to pick up the fifth-year option for players selected in the first round of the 2011 NFL Draft. We've seen quite a few options already picked up.
Add the Steelers and defensive end Cameron Heyward to the list as the team announced the move on Tuesday morning.
The @steelers have picked up the fifth-year option for DE @CamHeyward - complete details by @BobLabriola on the team's website shortly.

Heyward was selected with the 31st pick in the 2011 NFL Draft and, like many of these options, a no brainer to pick up.
The defensive end had a breakout year in 2013, picking up five sacks in 13 starts (and 16 total games) and improving across the board as a defender. He fits quite nicely in the Steelers 3-4 defense as an end who can stuff the run and put pressure on quarterbacks and Pittsburgh likely loves having him under cheap control for the next two years.
