I think they'll be aggressive. They have a lot of holes to fill and a lot of cap space to fill them.

Like buying a house, all it takes is two parties to up the bidding.  I can see the Jets taking a run at Fields, if that happens at what point do the Steelers bail? $15-$20MM per for 2?  I can see this organization screwing this up just don't panic draft a QB!

If the Jets want to pay Fields $20 million a year let them!

Will the Steelers get a comp pick for DB coach leaving for Jets?   Thanks.

That's just for coordinators.
Or head coaches.

Besides Omar what other Steelers front office will be available to media at the combine?  If you could ask Omar one pointed question and he had to answer it honestly what would the question be?  Thnx.

Unless Tomlin reverses course, he'll be the only head coach not available at the combine. So it's likely only Khan for the traveling Steelers media contingent.

Ray,  I think Karl Dunbar has not done a very good job of developing DL.  If we draft  a couple of DL players can we expect they get develope

To be fair, they've haven't used a first-round pick on a DL since 2011 on Cam Heyward, but overall I agree with you he hasn't done a good enough job developing who they do draft.

Do you think the Steelers would take a FA RB as opposed to drafting one? Nick Chubb, Hunt, Mattison are all FA's and the draft seems to fall off if a select few are taken before the Steelers pick in their later rounds

Draft an RB!

Good afternoon Ray. If the Steelers can get a second round pick for Pickens, why not trade him and get a veteran in fee agency   Then you can go WR, DL and then QB in first three rounds. Your thoughts?  Thanks

I like it Lenny! I'm just not sure they can get a second-rounder for Pickens.

OK that's all the time I have this week. Stay tuned for a time for next week's chat. I'll be doing it live from the combine.
