Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers will be looking at several positions at the NFL Scouting Combine, but who are the top interests at linebacker and defensive line? Chris Carter goes over some of the big names in both groups he's most interested in talking with at the combine, and goes over why linebacker could be more important than some estimate. Payton Wilson, Edgerrin Cooper, Jeremiah Trotter Jr., Jer'Zahn Newton, Byron Murphy II, T'Vondre Sweat are all targets to consider, but who is the best fit for the Steelers' defensive plans in the early rounds of the NFL Draft?

The Pittsburgh Steelers have a very athletic NFL Draft class to consider in 2024, so Chris Carter and Nick Farabaugh are going to judge which NFL Combine standouts are the best fits for the Steelers. Listen as they play buy or sell and consider top offensive tackles like Amarius Mims vs Tyler Guyton, which are the top cornerbacks and receivers, and sleepers the Steelers should consider.

Also, every day NFL free agency grows with more options to sign. Are there top free agent targets for Omar Khan that could be realistic for the Steelers?

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Mike DeFabor of the Athletic.

The Pittsburgh Steelers only have Kenny Pickett on their roster when it comes to quarterbacks. So why does it look like they won't make a big splash at quarterback? Chris Carter and Mike DeFabo explain what they're hearing, including Mike's recent story for The Athletic with sources that show the reasoning why the Steelers aren't in on trading for Justin Fields, or signing Russell Wilson or Kirk Cousins.

Also, as trade speculation grows around Diontae Johnson's status with the Steelers, Chris and Mike explore if the thoughts behind trading Johnson are more about his contract situation, or if there's internal drama the team's trying to deal with.

Finally, as the NFL free agency pool grows, multiple positions continue to grow with options at cornerback, linebacker, wide receiver, center and other positions of need for the Steelers. Chris and Mike discuss reasonable options.

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers' decision to cut Mason Cole makes a clear plan for the team to address the center position. Chris Carter explains why that plan makes more sense to be in the NFL Draft than in free agency, as the team can get a player like Jackson Powers-Johnson and Zach Frazier.

Ahead of the NFL Combine, Chris also explains how the NFL's new salary cap sets up free agency for a solid plan to buttress the roster. Can the Steelers make a splash with a big signing this offseason at a key position of need?

Finally, it's Mock Draft Monday and Chris goes over the picks of this week's winners.

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers will most likely have a tough decision on their hands in the NFL Draft: do they take the top center? Or the cornerbacks and offensive tackles still available at the 20th pick? That's the question Chris Carter examines this episode, weighing the importance of the positions and just how deep the classes are to justify where the Steelers might prefer to make their first selection in the NFL Draft.

Then, Chris takes more of your Locked on Steelers hotline questions, including the options to sign free agent quarterbacks like Russell Wilson and Gardner Minshew. Also, who should the Steelers try to make their third wide receiver? And is Tyler Boyd a legitimate option?

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers' NFL Draft needs haven't changed after the NFL Combine, but their priorities might've shifted. Strong showings of wide receivers, cornerbacks and offensive tackles further boost the value of those positions in the NFL Draft. Chris Carter explains how the speed and explosiveness of the wide receivers like Xavier Worthy, Roman Wilson, Adonai Mitchell and Brian Thomas Jr., as well as the Steelers' official combine visits could show a different plan ot the NFL Draft than what was believed before.

Also, it's Mock Draft Monday, which means Chris goes over the picks of this week's winner. There's a bigger focu on offensive tackles, receivers and cornerbacks for this show.

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have an obvious need for an offensive tackle in the NFL Draft, and this is the perfect class to make such a pick to pair with Broderick Jones. Chris Carter goes over the relative athletic scores for prospects like Amarius Mims, Tyler Guyton, Taliese Fuaga and Patrick Paul, and why this class is truly unique with how athletic and talented the offensive tackles are. Also, more trade speculation grows around Diontae Johnson's contract situation. Could the Steelers get a decent haul back for giving Johnson to a team looking for a talented veteran wide receiver? Finally, which positions will the Steelers look to add in both the NFL Draft and free agency? Chris explains why that could be wide receiver, cornerback and safety.
