Steelers Outpost Podcast
The Steelers pulled the cover off of the Mazerati to see if the engine would start. After a couple of sputtering attempts, it revved up with Ben Roethlisberger and the offensive starters methodically marching 58 yards down the field for the team's first touchdown, a 17 yard pass to JuJu Smith-Schuster. This feels real. Not like 8th grade with Bubba Kowalchik towered over the entire middle school at 5'6", only to stretch out to 5'8" by senior year. NO. This feels like.......destiny.

Kevin Colbert and Mike Tomlin held a press conference this week and revealed next to nothing about their draft strategy. Oh, of course they noted that they don't use a draft chart and that the essentially draft the best athlete available, stating "drafting for need is never going to make you a better franchise."
While we're at it, check out this video documenting the Steelers less successful draft forays in the 1950s when the strategy was to use every draft choice to get a veteran player.
The Steelers schedule was announced and the NFL says the Steelers have the 12th easiest schedule based on the last season W-L of their opponents. We delve into what the Steelers face.
Chris Carter of DK Sports and new co-host of Locked on Steelers Podcast with Tony Sereno posits that teams are very stealthy about whom they are looking at during the pre-draft months so as not to tip their hands. No doubt he's right, but we explore this misguided strategy.
Finally we talk about Jeremy Fowler’s ESPN article: For NFL prospects, cost of getting drafted can surpass $100K. These guys are definitely taking odd jobs in the off season.
