The Pittsburgh Steelers, through a variety of means, lost a lot of players over the course of the past year. Gone are numerous starters and key role players, from Alejandro Villanueva, Matt Feiler, Maurkice Pouncey, and David DeCastro to Bud Dupree, Mike Hilton, Steven Nelson, and Vince Williams.
I don’t know about you, but the team sure could have used at least a couple of those guys this year, especially on defense. Two of their biggest losses, the cornerback Hilton and the outside linebacker Dupree, will be squaring off this weekend with their new teams for the right to advance to the AFC Championship Game.
