- On the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Christopher Carter and Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo react to news that Aaron Curry will not return as Steelers ILBs coach. Is this an opportunity for GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin to shake up the defensive staff under DC Teryl Austin? Could former New England Patriots coach Jerod Mayo be the big acquisition needed give a jolt to what's become a stale defense? How much could he help players like Patrick Queen and Payton Wilson at the ILB position? And what impact could improved LB play have on the rest of the defense that includes stars like T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward, Minkah Fitzpatrick and Joey Porter Jr.?
Later, the guys take an early look at NFL free agency. Is Tee Higgins a live option to join George Pickens and Calvin Austin III in the WRs room? Would Javon Hargrave, D.J. Jones, B.J. Hill and/or Javon Kinlaw make sense as DT additions? And is Byron Murphy a name worth considering in the secondary?
Our guys tackle those question, then ponder the running back market to possibly replace Najee Harris in the backfield. Would Khan really get older at the position by signing free agents like Aaron Jones or Nick Chubb? Would names like A.J. Dillon, Javonte Williams Alexander Mattison really be upgrades on Harris? Or should the Steelers be looking to the NFL draft?

James Farrior should at least be a consultant. We do need to add to the staff. We've got a lot of past players that's had success in the system. Doesn't mean they can coach, but it doesnt mean some cannot/be a benefit.
Keep Preston Smith....Hargrave played Nose even though he was light. Nevertheless, Hargrave would be a good depth piece.
Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon are lightning and thunder. Kaleb Johnson is worth an early pick.....he's a homerun hitter...a consistent threat for it....tape don't lie.
What happened to Sika from Baylor he is a big NT didn’t he had tryout for us.
Steelers should have kept Brian Flores in the building.
...And sent mike tomlin back to Minnesota 🤔
The Steelers need to trade for or draft a nose tackle.They have not had a nose tackle since Casey Hampton and Chris Hoke
I'd relish the thought of adding Mayo since we've been playing Ketchup far too often since losing the Heinz field stadium name. A commitment to condiments would get us over the winning playoff drought by adding Mustard to the Steelers game. So yes, Mayo please and thank you
Christopher Carter do you think they should resign Justin fields and let Russell Wilson go go get a draft pick for quarterback 2 behind Justin fields or get a free agent quarterback and get rid of George Pickens cuz he's a big problem and go get a draft pick for a receiver and pick one up in free agency
Seems like everyone talking about the Steelers has good, innovative ideas- everyone except art rooney and mike tomlin 🤔
Ya im sure he wants to coach for dumblin, take a huge demotion. Probably at minimum salary because art2 is cheap. All you guys need to do your job. Ask the hard questions and stop kissing art2 butt. Art2s cheapness has killed the steelers and yinz wont ask the questions. Ive yet to hear any of you call him out about it. Cant afford players and coaches then sell.
I like J. Warren he ran 1 big run for a TD that’s was against the Browns last when Kenny .P was come on
Get serious. Only coach without a tree. Win with Cowhers players
Let it go dude you sound weird
Who cares about a coaching tree, we care about superbowls
Superbowls? We have not won a playoff game in 8 years 🤨
The only way to run well, is by being able to pass well..
YES but UNFORTUNATELY steelers don't listen too us fan's on who they should HIRE JAROD MAYO would be a great LB coach for Pittsburgh he learned from the best that ever coached
No F in way!
I heard James Harrison is interested in coaching...be a much better hire than Mayo
Did we hear Ryan Shazier really helped with running backs?? lol
Totally disagree on the RB. Need a solid back
he said most important things are race on his first day announced as coach after Kraft said he doesn't see color. Mayo so oh I see color and it's very important. No thanks but hey that's how Steelers roll these days. Who cares about winning as long as you have a black coach
Is that really necessary? Who should replace him with you racist genius
Another dei hire. Haha
Oh, yeah- screw jordan davis! I mean when was the last time the eagles... oh, wait 🤔
More DEI 🤦🏾♂️
