Steelers GM Kevin Colbert: Stephon Tuitt 'Absolutely' Returns in 2022, QB Starters in NFL Draft: Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, is joined by Tony Serino of AFC North Talk. Pittsburgh Steelers GM Kevin Colbert spoke at the NFL Scouting Combine and talked about Stephon Tuitt's potential return as if it was a done deal and that after missing the 2020 season, the Steelers are excited to have him back. What would Tuitt's return to team up with Cam Heyward, T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith do for the Steelers' 2022 defense? Also, Tony takes a victory lap (sort of) about Mitchell Trubisky being considered by the Steelers in free agency, and Colbert dished more on how this NFL Draft has a quarterbacks class with multiple starters. Does that lock the Steelers into picking Malik Willis or Kenny Pickett in the first round? Finally, Colbert also spoke about the team needing to see more from Kevin Dotson and Zach Banner. Does that guarantee Banner's return in 2022? That in addition to positive pr by Locked On Steelers – Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh Steelers

Steelers Should Wait Before Giving Diontae Johnson WR1 Money / Use NFL Draft as Receiver Backup Plan: Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, is joined by Jenna Harner of WPXI-TV. Diontae Johnson is rumored to want a major contract worth five years, $90 million from the Pittsburgh Steelers. But is he worth that? His numbers improved and his drop rate diminished in 2021, but the Steelers have a tough decision about extending him vs. looking for their WR1 elsewhere. With only Chase Claypool on the roster as a younger wide receiver, Kevin Colbert and Mike Tomlin must look to either free agency or the NFL Draft to replenish the wide receiver position. With prospects like Chris Olave, Christian Watson, Skyy Moore, Garrett Wilson, Jameson Williams and George Pickens available, the Steelers should be careful about paying Johnson a big contract unless he's polished his big mistakes out of his game.

Diontae Johnson Contract Rumors/What Steelers Paying Him WR1 Money Would Mean with New Salary Cap: Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, is joined by Wesley Uhler of Steeler Nation Radio and the 'Eers & Beers podcast. Rumors around Diontae Johnson's potential contract extension continue to swirl, and the Pittsburgh Steelers may have a tough decision on their hands while voluntary team workouts begin. But are those rumors true? Johnson made some cryptic tweets about his situation that left Steelers fans wondering if he might want a major payday with his next contract. He's rumored to want $22 million/year, but such a contract wouldn't be as costly as some might think with the rapidly rising NFL salary cap, and might actually be a reasonable price for a team's top receiver. But the questions is: is he worth that? Even if the Steelers can get Johnson to agree to a long term deal, Kevin Colbert and Mike Tomlin need to have backup plan in place for the w by Locked On Steelers – Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh Steelers

Ahkello Witherspoon's Return Signals Steelers' Push for Star Safeties Tyrann Mathieu, Landon Collins: Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, is joined by Jenna Harner of WPXI-TV. The Pittsburgh Steelers re-signed Ahkello Witherspoon to a two-year contract, essentially ending the team's free agency search at cornerback. Now, Kevin Colbert and Mike Tomlin must find their starting strong safety, and they've got plenty of money to do that.

Will the Steelers make a big move? Mitch Trubisky, Myles Jack, James Daniels, Levi Wallace and Jason Cole all addressed Pittsburgh media for the first time, speaking about the culture of the organization and how Tomlin, Brian Flores and Cam Heyward have all played big parts in their joining the team.

Should Steelers Keep Ahkello WItherspoon, Joe Haden, or Try to Get J.C. Jackson in Free Agency?: Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, is joined by Jenna Harner of WPXI-TV. The Pittsburgh Steelers have both Ahkello Withersoon and Joe Haden as unrestricted free agents and desperately need a top cornerback to be on the roster in 2022.

One Year Anniversary Of The Sam Darnold Trade As The Carolina Panthers Quarterback Search Continues: Tuesday marked the one-year anniversary of the team's decision to trade a second, fourth, and sixth-round pick for the then-New York Jets quarterback. A year later the team is looking to replace the quarterback they believed would be the franchise moving forward. Who is to be blamed for this hellacious decision? The Panthers are set to bring in Malik Willis (Liberty), Kenny Pickett (Pitt), Matt Corral (Ole Miss), Desmond Ridder (Cincinnati), Sam Howell (UNC), and Bailey Zappe (Western Kentucky) to Charlotte next week for the teams 30 pre-draft visits. Which of these prospects are the most desirable? ESPN's Todd McShay released his two-round Mock Draft 4.0, once again mocking Kenny Pickett to the Panthers. McShay views Pickett as the most NFL-ready of the prospects available. Julian explains why that reasoning is shortsighted given what's needed to win in the NFL today.

Can Pittsburgh Steelers Get Cornerback J.C. Jackson? / Art Rooney II's Plans at Quarterback, Defense: Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, is joined by Jenna Harner of WPXI-TV. J.C. Jackson let the world know the Patriots weren't paying to keep him and he was headed to free agency. That's the Pittsburgh Steelers' best chance to add a serious piece that could make them a great defense. If Mike Tomlin, Teryl Austin and Brian Flores want to construct an elite defense, they'll need a top cornerback, and Jackson may be the best in the NFL. That also falls in line with what Art Rooney II told Jenna Harner Thursday in her interview with him about the direction of the Steelers. The team's owner talked about how their plan to make a great defense is their way of countering top AFC quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Justin Herbert, Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow.

Arthur Moats Ranks Devin Lloyd-Led NFL Draft Linebacker Class, Steelers' Need for Devin Bush Partner: Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, is joined by former Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Arthur Moats. The NFL Draft has a strong linebacker class in 2022 with Devin Lloyd, Nakobe Dean, Christian Harris, Brian Asamoah and Chad Muma as some of the top prospects. Former Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Arthur Moats weighs in on the need to find Devin Bush's partner in this class, and dives into his rankings of this year's linebacker prospects. Should the Steelers go all out and get Devin Lloyd in the first round? Or should they wait until the middle rounds for players like Chad Muma, Brian Asamoah and Channing Tindall? Stephon Tuitt's status for 2022 is still unknown, so Moats gives his outlook on how the Steelers should approach the situation with free agency starting in just a couple weeks.

Statistics and past success on different types of rosters between those quarterbacks provides a closer look at the Steelers' options. Also, should the Steelers commit to getting a quarterback in the first round of the NFL Draft?
