Conversation surronding the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offseason has gone one direction – release Mike Mitchell, draft a safety and either draft or sign an inside linebacker to replace Ryan Shazier. Then, make room for Le’Veon Bell and sign him to a major deal.
Well, what if they did something different. Looking through the amount of talent at running back and inside linebacker in the first two rounds of the draft, and seeing one BIG name in free agency, Pittsburgh can easily adjust their approach to the offseason.
Why not sign Morgan Burnett? The free safety wouldn’t just fill the hole Mitchell has created in the secondary, but restructure the way this defense is looked at.
