Steelers have three outside candidates for GM position

MOBILE, Ala. -- The Steelers are not only looking at potential draft picks at the Senior Bowl. They're also starting to put together a list of potential replacements for General Manager Kevin Colbert, as well.

According to sources, the Steelers have an initial list of people they would like to interview for Colbert's position that includes outside candidates Ryan Cowden, currently the vice president of player personnel for the Titans, Colts assistant GM Ed Dodds and former Steelers scout and Bills GM Doug Whaley.

That trio would bring the list of people interviewed to replace Colbert, who will step down from the post he's held since 2000 following this year's draft, to five.
