Did Steelers' Omar Khan give NFL free agency HINTS? Extensions for Joey Porter Jr., Nick Herbig?

from Post-Gazette Sports Network: Pittsburgh Steelers, Pirates, Penguins and more · host Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

On the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel & Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Christopher Carter and Ray Fittipaldo react to the NFL combine and what we may have learned about GM Omar Khan's plan for free agency, which begins next week. Did the volume of meetings with receivers and defensive backs telegraph that the Steelers will focus heavily on those position groups in the NFL draft, as coach Mike McCarthy searches for answers across from established playmakers including DK Metcalf, Pat Freiermuth and Joey Porter Jr.? Are names like Jordyn Tyson, Denzel Boston, Makai Lemon and KC Concepcion the ones we need to watch most closely? Could extensions be coming for 2023 draft class members including Broderick Jones, Porter Jr., Nick Herbig and Darnell Washington? Or will that depend on what happens with free agency? And where will Khan focus his free agent spending? Will it also go to the receiver and defensive back positions, as it did with Darius Slay and Juan Thornhill last offseason? Or will it be used to addressed positions like guard, where Issac Seumalo is set to depart? And running back, where Kenneth Gainwell is a free agent? Our duo tackles those questions and more.
