Minkah Fitzpatrick caps un-Steelers-like rebuild on defense; get ready for many happy (Int) returns
from Steelers Breakdown from PennLive.com · host PennLive
The Pittsburgh Steelers spent plenty of draft capital on its defense over the years. But for various reasons, many of those picks didn’t have positive returns. But the team brain trust admitted their drafting deficiencies and made up for them by trading for Minkah Fitzpatrick, signing Joe Haden and Steven Nelson and discovering Mike Hilton – and that’s just the un-Steelers-like renovation in the secondary. Pittsburgh will always prefer home-grown players, but the defense being built by going outside the organization is something special. And in 2020, the rebuilt D should show its strength like never before. I tell you all the reasons why in this prediction-oriented edition of the Steelers Update podcast.
