  • Is this even a Steelers podcast?

    They barely talk about Steelers. They like talking about draft kings most of the time.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Steelers' 'Historic' Draft Capital Mean Aggressive Omar Khan Moves Coming? | Andy Weidl Future GM?
Q: Should we make Omar Khan the president of football operations and promote Andy to GM?
The host suggests a possible path where Omar Khan steps into a president of football operations role with Andy Weidl becoming GM, contingent on Dan Rooney Jr.'s positioning and long-term succession, but notes Khan is not the primary draft guru and emphasizes a needed balance and continuity.
Steelers' Draft Picks Max Iheanachor, Gennings Dunker Set O-Line for Versatile, High Celing Future
Q: Why did they go after Max Iheanachor instead of a receiver in the first round?
The hosts suggest the board considered multiple receivers but prioritized the offensive line, believing Iheanachor offered the best overall value and positional flexibility for depth and future development.
Steelers' Omar Khan Priming Big Trade of T.J. Watt or Alex Highsmith for Major NFL Draft Capital?
Q: Do you think it's possible that the Steelers would trade an edge rusher for a high pick, possibly to land a quarterback in 2027?
Yes, there's a thread of possibility if a contending team values the edge rusher highly enough and the Steelers get a package that could realistically net a future franchise quarterback, but it's unlikely unless the right window and capital align.
Steelers' Derrick Harmon, Run Defense Ready for Rebound in 2026 Despite Lack of Draft Investment?
Q: Hi, Chris. This is Mark from Warren, Ohio. Do you think Aaron Rodgers really needs those reps with the younger receivers if he's not fully engaged in the off-season program?
The hosts argue that while reps with younger receivers can help, Rodgers' familiarity with the offense and veteran experience lessen the need for extensive OTA reps; the benefit mainly goes to the younger players to build chemistry, not so much to Rodgers himself.
Steelers' Blitz Plans Under Patrick Graham to Dial Up or Down Pressure from T.J. Watt, Defense?
Q: What are other challenges you see for the Steelers when it comes to generating pressure under Patrick Graham?
The consensus is that balancing aggression with coverage, rotating players to keep Watt and Highsmith fresh, and creating a larger bag of disguises will be key to maintaining pressure without leaking big plays.
