The Pittsburgh Steelers added a potential starter at cornerback when the team signed CB Darius Slay earlier this week, but The 33rd Team’s Marcus Mosher isn’t a fan of Slay’s fit in Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh’s signing of Slay was ranked the seventh-worst move of free agency thus far.
“Pittsburgh had a big hole at cornerback with Donte Jackson leaving in free agency, so it wasn’t a surprise they were aggressive in targeting Darius Slay. However, Slay is 34 and has been at his best in a zone-heavy scheme. Pittsburgh plays more man coverage under Teryl Austin, and it’s fair to wonder how that will fit Slay’s game at this stage of his career.
