Well, this position just got a little more interesting. After what was, in my opinion, a fairly unexpected retirement from Stephon Tuitt last week on June 1, the Steelers have a group that is still very deep, but lacking in any sure thing at the position outside of All-World defensive tackle (DT) Cameron Heyward.
The fact that the other side of the ball in Pittsburgh is so young, inexperienced, and a major unknown at this juncture means that much more pressure is on the Defense to be great for this team to be a true playoff contender.
