As of right now, we don’t know what is going to happen at the outside linebacker position for the Pittsburgh Steelers right now. Perhaps they have a plan in place. We don’t know at this time. We know that Mike Tomlin said retaining Bud Dupree is a priority, but making something a priority and actually accomplishing it can sometimes be far apart.
The Steelers have to consider a multiple-year philosophy here, one that includes the inevitability of throwing a whole bunch of money at T.J. Watt in the near future.
