Andy Weidl's about to become one of Pittsburgh's most prominent sports figures.
Or, he's about to be ... utterly ignored?
Weidl, the Mt. Lebanon native who last year became the Steelers' assistant GM following two interviews for the GM job that instead went to Omar Khan, is about to embark on his first NFL free-agency period and his first draft on the South Side, this after six seasons in the Eagles' front office. And one would think, given his pedigree of scouting football talent for two and a half decades, capped by helping Philadelphia reach its current status among the league's elite, that he'd be a central figure in what's about to come.
