Would be nice but considering the Steelers aren't even cap compliant... not gonna happen
They aren't? I have no freakin clue what the cap situation is. Trying to figure out the NFL cap is impossible.

I swear I saw they had 12+ million available and not sure all would be needed for the picks.

Maybe I got some bad info. But last thing I read said they weren’t compliant & would need to restructure somebody… Something about the “effective cap space” or rather… yea it’s really hard to figure that shit out because different sites show different numbers.

OTA Storylines to watch for:


Tuitt Watch
  • OTAs are voluntary... But still would be a very encouraging sign to see Tuitt present. Heyward is a big advocate for OTAs so if Tuitt intends to play then no doubt Heyward will make sure he is there.
OL Watch
  • First look at the new pieces & where they will take snaps. It is expected to see Daniels at RG & Cole at C. And will we see Green transition to G? We shall see.
Offense/Coordinator
  • Not investing much into this. Buts its going to make headlines at some point that the offense is going to feature a lot more of Canada's brand. Pre-snap motion, PA, boots, RPOs, etc.
WR Corps
  • Will DJ attend amidst his contract standoff? He's already made it clear he wants a new contract. Been pretty quiet on the Steelers' side.
  • All eyes on Pickens & Austin but what about WR5 & WR6? Is Boykin a lock? Anthony Miller's time to shine if he wants to seal the deal. There is some excitement brewing over newly signed UDFA Tyler Snead.
ILB Corps
  • All eyes on Bush & Jack. The group boasts dynamic athleticism, but we need to see some excitement with these 2. Going to be a hot topic discussion about how these 2 look all throughout camps this offseason.
  • ILB depth battles between Spillane, Allen, UG3, Buddy Johnson & rookie Mark Robinson. I predicted they will keep 4 ILBs, but its possible there are up to 3 spots up for grabs between these 5 contenders.

Make his brother pay his salary......
If they cut Watt it will kill the whole brothers playing with each other vibe.

Only thing that sucks is with the Edmunds brothers, they couldn't get the good one.

And saying Derek Watt plays offense is a very loose interpretation of an offensive player.

So it seems one of these six men will be the next GM.

My top 3 based off of the limited stuff I know... Hunt, Whaley & Khan.

If Hunt & Khan don't get it, then I suspect Whaley is next in line simply because of his history with the team. And he has been a pretty damn good talent evaluator.

I'm surprised Riddick isn't on that list. Didn't he get a 2nd interview?

Yeah I agree with those top 3. Per the reports it was only those 6 that had a second interview and were the finalists, so I think Riddick is out.
