1A) Hire an OC that's equipped to coach today's game
1B) Continue searching for a franchise QB while Mason starts the next few years
2) Continue to address the MLB situation
3) Continue to address the OL situation (Cole should be gone today)
Jay Glazer reports that Tomlin could take a break, ala Sean Payton.
Offseason priorities #1 and #2 right here
Stepping up in the pocket is nearly impossible with Mason Cole... Tom Brady would have retired 5 years earlier if he played one season with Cole as his center because pressure up the middle was his kryptonite.
Bring a coordinator or candidate in who understands modern football, and I think youll see a much different offense. This season was simply a stale old basic offensive system. The running game finally got traction when they started running quick hitting run plays up the middle with Najee and stopped trying to make the slow guy run outside zones.
there just aren't really MLBs that go early anymore. If there's a unicorn, I'm in for it. But give me OL and CB imo. C would be nice, maybe you can sign one, an LT would be goodThe rd1 pick should be corner back, and ILB, S, and C should be fully addressed by that point. Then you can look at things like DEs, NT, and WR with the mid round picks.
Yeah, but cutting Cole, Mitch, Robinson, Chucks, Kazee and trading Johnson would clear like 40mm in cap space. And that's before they manage the over 60mm in space that Cam, Minkah, and Watt are taking up.I think it's more likely that Mason won't be back next year. The Steelers are currently over the cap by around $6M. They only save around $3M by cutting Mitch, so I have a bad feeling that he'll be back. That probably doesn't leave enough money to bring back Mason because a team will be willing to pay him the same amount, if not more than what Mitch is getting.
Pretty sure there’s other holders out there that are just as good (not to mention other players that could do it if needed) He’s really bad at his main job.To me it's a majoring in the minors kind of thing, but Harvin is an excellent holder and that seems to be a large part of the motivation to keep him around because there's a near limitless number of better punters out there.
Spending to the cap without a franchise QB taking up most of it is also bad business, imo. This team isn't a QB away from a super bowl, and they don't have a franchise QB on a rookie contract worth spending to the max until you need to do his deal.I think it's more likely that Mason won't be back next year.

My problem is that they'd cut Harvin and just bring in Wing, who isn't great either. It's a weird thing, but ever since Miller, they haven't really ever had a solid player at that position.To me it's a majoring in the minors kind of thing, but Harvin is an excellent holder and that seems to be a large part of the motivation to keep him around because there's a near limitless number of better punters out there.

I agree with this. There are…what…at least a dozen teams that don’t have a QB1. Maybe 15 teamsYou need a #1 QB in this league to win..period.
