Player: RB Najee Harris
Stock Value: Sold
Reasoning: The Steelers appear to have never made an offer to RB Najee Harris, which is and isn’t surprising. Many believe they decided to move on last year, evidenced by not exercising his fifth-year option. Instead, they placed a second-round free-agent tender on Jaylen Warren, turning to other options in free agency and the draft. It marks the end of a curious four-year tenure, from which both sides may benefit.
The Steelers viewed Najee Harris as a workhorse running back when they drafted him, which is why they drafted him in the first round in 2021, believing that he could withstand the load.
