Will Steelers, Omar Khan SPEND their $27M in salary cap space? Target free agents like Joel Bitonio?

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

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Christopher Carter to ponder the team's options with its estimated $27 million in salary cap space. Will GM Omar Khan and coach Mike McCarthy use it to make any more significant moves before training camp? Beyond retaining Aaron Rodgers at QB? Could options including receivers Stefon Diggs and Deebo Samuel; guards Daniel Faalele and Joel Bitonio; tight end David Njoku and defensive tackle D.J. Reader make sense at positions of perceived need? Or could Khan use his 12 NFL draft picks to make a trade for a veteran on another team? Our duo tackles those questions, then reacts to news that Mike Tomlin has hired representation to explore possible TV work. Would it be surprising to see the likely Hall of Fame coach move into media following a rocky relationship with it through the years? Will he find success in a second act like Andy Reid? Or could he be done with the game like Bill Cowher was? The guys also discuss Ben Roethlisberger's calls for the team to sign Josh Dobbs to its QB room alongside Mason Rudolph and Will Howard if Rodgers retires. And the team's history of making trades in the first round of the NFL draft. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
