My thoughts on the Steelers 2019 campaign. Where do I start. Most likely with their strength. The defense. With their defense the strength was with the pass rush of T.J. Watt and Bud Dupree. They did not need to worry about the secondary as they did in pass years with the additions of Steven Nelson (CB) and Minkah Fitzpatrick (S).
Turning to the offense with the quarterback carousel from week-to-week. The inexperience of the skilled position on offense namely quarterbacks, wide receivers and running backs with the injuries to the tight end position. With the run game you did not know if it would be power run from the I-formation, power strong, strong formation, or your finesse run game out of the shotgun, pistol and wildcat. Turning to the offensive line it showed its strong suit in the interior but the both Tackle spots seemed to be a weakness from week-to-week. This is my first mock draft for the Steelers this year.
