Colbert Says Draft Could Create ‘Opportunity To Terminate Somebody’ To Create Cap Space

As you have surely already been made aware by now, we have gotten our first opportunity in a while to hear directly from members of the Pittsburgh Steelers front office yesterday thanks to the Annual League Meeting getting underway yesterday. That included a sit-down interview with General Manager Kevin Colbert, who spoke on a number of issues with Missi Matthews for the team’s website.

Perhaps the two biggest topics that he discussed were the decision pending over whether or not to pick up Bud Dupree’s fifth-year option and, well, the biggest question looming over the offseason, regarding whether or not the team will be able to reach a long-term deal with running back Le’Veon Bell.
