Wednesday is an important day on the NFL calendar as any unrestricted free agent signed from this date forward will not count towards the 2019 compensatory draft pick calculation. What that means is that a good chunk of the compensatory draft picks for 2019 are now able to be speculated.
When it comes to the Pittsburgh Steelers, specifically, they’re not expected to receive a compensatory draft pick in 2019 based on what all has transpired during the main part of free agency.
During the 2018 free agent signing period, the Steelers signed three unrestricted free agents away from other teams in linebacker Jon Bostic and safeties Morgan Burnett and Nat Berhe.
