ESPN NFL insider Jeremy Fowler joined the show. Jeremy thinks it would be tough for Mitch Trubisky to stay in Pittsburgh at the current number, but likely released instead of traded. The guys asked how possible a signing of Jacoby Brissett could be. Jeremy didn’t rule out the Steelers signing Marcus Peters in free agency and commented on why it would match some moves they’ve made in the last few years. Jeremy thinks it will be a collaboration between Mike Tomlin and the rest of the front office when identifying free agents and draft prospects.

NFL film expert Greg Cosell joined the show. Greg just wrapped up his 43rd season as an NFL films expert. Greg liked Kenny Pickett a lot coming out of Pitt and that he was the best QB of last year’s class because of his understanding of concepts. He said there are definitely things Pickett needs to work on, but that is expected with a young quarterback. Greg said sometimes Pickett leaves the pocket early and abandons the play not realizing how the pocket is forming around him, but he looked pretty poised for a rookie. Greg made his comparison between Pickett and Joe Burrow. He said it’s not a bad idea to add talent along the offensive line with a young quarterback, saying the interior of the line needs more work. Greg said Najee Harris is a huge question mark in the Steelers offense as a foundational piece. Greg praised George Pickens coming out of college, saying he was the most talented guy in the class last year at his position. 

Football analyst Mike Golic Jr. joined the show. Mike talked about the cup of coffee he had with the Steelers and how Cam Heyward scared him into an early retirement. Mike hyped up some of the Steelers offensive line from the early 2010’s like Maurkice Pouncey and David DeCastro. He also gave a shout out to Ramon Foster as an undrafted guy that made it in the league. Mike talked about training camp at St. Vincent College and how impressed he was with the fanfare. He said Ben Roethlisberger had a pretty positive relationship with everyone and how he’s one of the most naturally-gifted guys to play QB he’s ever seen. 

Poni set the scene from his third day on Radio Row in Phoenix as Mullsy settled in from Rivers Casino. Poni tried some fried chicken on-air. 

An infamous former MLB pitcher is a producer for a sports radio show in Dallas. And Poni had a Steelers free agent rumor – Marcus Peters. Is that a realistic target for the Steelers next month? He checks a lot of the typical Steelers boxes in terms of age, price, familiarity and character. Would you rather take a shot on a veteran CB like Peters or a rookie CB in the draft? The guys think it actually makes a lot of sense. 

Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. Tyler said football betting wasn’t big in the hockey locker room, with the exception of the Super Bowl, but tennis or soccer was always a big watch. He said Joe Thornton hosted the best Super Bowl parties. The guys asked Tyler about the warmup game hockey players would enjoy with a soccer ball before getting out on the ice.

The guys talked about how the Steelers front office will split duties heading into the off-season, according to a former NFL GM. Chris thinks the good draft picks will be credited to Andy Weidl and Omar Khan, with the bad picks being attributed to Mike Tomlin. We also listened back to some of the big answers from Cam Heyward.

Miles described himself as a blue-collar player. Miles talked about some of his biggest hits since he’s been in the league, including one that resulted in a fine.

Twitter is broken right now. Absolute catastrophe.

Brian talked about some of the back and forth in the rivalry with the Steelers and other AFC foes.

Brian told tales of how to deal with Ben Roethlisberger early in the QB’s career. He shared memories of facing off with Jerome Bettis and his physical nature of play.
