The biggest issue on the Pittsburgh Steelers’ roster on paper is their wide receiver room. The team traded Diontae Johnson this offseason and didn’t add another legitimate No. 2 receiver. Instead, the Steelers opted for more project-type players like Van Jefferson, Quez Watkins and Scotty Miller, although the team did draft Michigan WR Roman Wilson in the third round and still has Calvin Austin III on the roster. Appearing on The Rich Eisen Show recently, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette believes the Steelers’ wide receiver room has “nice potential” heading into 2024.
“We’ll see how Arthur Smith utilizes those guys, I’m not gonna tell you it’s the greatest wide receiver room in team history, but I think it has some nice potential with the addition of Roman Wilson and they’ll keep their fingers crossed that Calvin Austin, they can utilize his speed the way they envisioned when they drafted him a couple years ago,” Dulac said.
