Locked On Steelers – Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh Steelers

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are being steered by their general manager Omar Khan now that Mike Tomlin is gone. Khan's been at the center of some good decisions in their roster rebuild, but Christopher Carter sees mistakes he must learn from this year's NFL Draft. But was it the mistakes to not trade up for Makai Lemon and settle for Max Iheanachor, or the reach for Drew Allar at quarterback in the third round? Christopher also takes your questions on the Steelers through the Locked on Steelers call-in line. Were the Steelers too patient to go for a wide receiver when they wound up with Germie Bernard? And did the Steelers draft too many specialists this year like Kaden Wetjen, Eli Heidenreich and Robert Spears-Jennings when they already have players like Max Hurleman and Sebastian Castro on the roster?

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Nick Farabaugh of PennLive.com.

The Pittsburgh Steelers placed a UFA tender on Aaron Rodgers, which spells trouble for Omar Khan and Mike McCarthy in their negotiations. Christopher Carter and Nick Farabaugh explain what the process is for the Steelers in their continued wait for Rodgers to show up and sign a deal with the team. But could Khan's move have just angered Rodgers and forced a problem? Or is the deal just a necessary insurance plan to protect the team if Rodgers decides to join a different roster? Also, Chris and Nick discuss the rationale behind McCarthy's commitment to develop Drew Allar despite the several weaknesses he shows on tape. Could the Steelers have wasted a pick on Allar when it's clear they plan to spend a high pick on a quarterback in a future draft? Or is this a good long term plan for Allar and Will Howard? Finally, Chris and Nick discuss how Germie Berrnard, DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman Jr. could make the offense more quarterback friendly than it has been in several years.

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com.

The Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Penn State quarterback Drew Allar while already having Will Howard on the roster. Could Omar Khan and Mike McCarthy prefer Allar's traits in the coming quarterback battle? Christopher Carter and Alan Saunders discuss how Allar and Howard compare as quarterbacks and how the Steelers can try to develop both. Has McCarthy assembled a coaching staff under McCarthy that's ready to bring up two young quarterbacks at the same time? And is Allar more likely to be a career backup quarterback or does he have the skills to riser to a starter role? Chris and Alan discuss what might happen with Allar even if Aaron Rodgers shows up to start at quarterback. And why do they think Omar Khan might've had the worst draft process of his four years being the Steelers GM?

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers' NFL Draft hit on several positions, but which of their picks were steals and which were reaches? Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette gives his analysis of the picks with a focus on their five picks in the top 100. From Max Iheanachor, to Germie Bernard, Drew Allar, Daylen Everette and Gennings Dunker, which picks were of the best value? And which picks passed up on key picks from other positions? Did Omar Khan's picking Iheanachor overlook much higher ranked first round prospects like Dillon Thieneman, Omar Cooper Jr. and K.C. Concepcion? Was Bernard the best fit for the second round? Could the Steelers have done better to pick Domonique Orange, A.J. Haulcy or Emmanuel Pregnon instead of Allar? Chris reviews all the options in this draft to determine where the Steelers could've better hit their needs, or if they came away with the right values in the end.

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers completed their day three picks, but gave off mixed signals of what their pre-draft plan was with their preferred targets. Christopher Carter gives his reaction to the Steelers picks of Kaden Wetjen, Riley Nowakowski, Gabriel Rubio, Robert Spears-Jennings and Eli Heidenreich. But did the Steelers' pre-draft plans show mixed signals with how they targeted different positions? Wetjen was a kick returner, but one taken much earlier than expected while the Steelers got defensive tackle and safety much later than expected like Rubio and Spears-Jennings.
