KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. NFL.com listed off three storylines for the Steelers going into the season, and number one was that a winning record isn't guaranteed with Mike McCarthy. Bob disagrees, and thinks the Steelers will finish above .500.

NHL writer Sean Gentille from The Athletic joined the show. Elliot Friedman said the other week that the Penguins have had serious talks with Jason Robertson, but nothing has happened yet. Sean thinks that it is possible that Robertson ends up getting traded, and that the most important thing to Jason Robertson is maximizing his contract. Sean also says that there are parts of Robertson's game that teams don't love, and are the reason why teams are hesitant to give Robertson 15 million dollars a season. Sean says the Penguins should also be hesitant on Elias Pettersson. KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show.

Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo from the PG joined the show. Ray says that there are two other high-profile corners in Joey Porter Jr.'s draft class, and he would value them a tick above Porter. He thinks the Nick Herbig contract will affect how much Porter ends up getting. Ray isn't sure if Darnell Washington will out-snap Pat Freiermuth again, and thinks that Freiermuth will play more than he did last year. He also thinks that Germie Bernard will be eased into the lineup as the year progresses on. KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. Bob is a good friend of John Daly's, and says that he has never seen him drink water. Pittsburgh isn't a top 10 city in terms of World Cup viewing.

Are the Pirates going to give Marcell Ozuna more of a runway in the second half?

Steve Palazzolo from the 33rd Team joined the show. Can the Steelers sneak Will Howard onto their practice squad if he doesn't make the 53-man roster? Steve said he doesn't care much for a player's special teams' ability, but it is more important than it was 5-10 years ago. Steve thinks it makes sense for the Steelers to hold on to all 4 QBs, but he knows it's tough for teams to justify that move. What would the Steelers fetch for Mason Rudolph in a trade? Steve thinks Rudolph is a fringe Top 10 backup in the league right now. Is a team's pass rush more important than pass coverage? Steve isn't sure if Joey Porter Jr. is in the range to be paid like a Top 5 CB, so he suggested a franchise tag. What are the options for Brendan Sorsby after the NFL nixed the supplemental draft? Poni wanted Steve to weigh in on his question pitting Lamar Jackson against Ben Roethlisberger. KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. Bob reacted to the Pirates series win over the Mariners.

Marty finds out from KDKA-TV's Andy Sheehan about Pittsburgh's seldom-used fire that boat costs taxpayers $1 million annually

Steve Palazzolo from the 33rd Team joined the show. Steve thinks that the Steelers are slightly improved from last year, citing the receivers as a big reason for that. He also says that Rodgers will look to take more shots down field this year. Steve says that it is important to have linemen that can play multiple positions, as teams will almost certainly face injuries on the line throughout the season. KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. Pomp thinks that Troy Fautanu will be the starting LT at the beginning of the season. He also says that the linebackers are going to have to show improvement and the defense is going to have to start playing like the highest paid defense in the league if the Steelers want to be any good this year. Pomp thinks that Victor Wembanyama will be the greatest basketball player of all time if he stays healthy throughout his career. Donny Football Debrief – The Steelers released their training camp schedule for 2026.

Bob credited Endy Rodriguez for his work in the first game of the season, getting 2 hits in his 2026 debut. Bob said he's not a fan of the ‘opener' method, but it worked out for Don Kelly and his club today. What do we think the future looks like for Jared Jones that is working through his rehab assignment? Attendance of over 19k today in the afternoon finale at PNC Park just days after barely 13k watched Paul Skenes dazzle. Pomp said fans have good reason to not be there in droves just yet after so much losing baseball in the last 3 decades. The guys peppered Bob on a few questions about the NFL schedule.

Drew Allar is going under a total reboot courtesy of Mike McCarthy. Is that a bad sign for the rookie QB? What does it say about the teachings at Penn State? If Aaron Rodgers is their guy this year, when will we really know if this work has paid off for Allar? The guys don't want that to impact their plans in the 2027 NFL Draft.

KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. Bob gave his thoughts on the end of the Penguins season and noted that it was ‘weird' that Sidney Crosby was quick in & out after the game last night. Pomp believes Evgeni Malkin will be back next season. Will Kris Letang be back to complete the Big 3? The guys asked Bob about a few others that may or may not be back.

Bob will be on KDKA-TV tonight for the draft! John Stallworth will announced one of the picks. Jerome Bettis will announce the first pick. Joe thinks the Steelers will pick Carson Beck in the third round. When are the Steelers going to pick a quarterback in this year's draft? 

Bob Pompeani joins the show! Huey Richardson was selected back in 1991. Was Bob happy with that pick way back then? What is Bob hearing the Steelers will do at the Draft? Technical gremlins at PNC Park require us to restart the conversation with Bob.

Poni had a list – a list of 10 names the Steelers could write on their draft card next Thursday night, according to someone connected to the team. With this being the first draft sans Mike Tomlin, things may operate a little differently than years past. There are some scenarios that the Steelers could move up or down, so it may not even be the name that is definitively chosen at 21st overall. The list included names of guys we have talked about for months, a few we've talked about a little bit, and a few that would require the Steelers to trade up that we haven't mentioned much at all in a realistic sense. Is Omar Khan bound for another big swing? Is it far fetched to think the Steelers will make the big splash and trade up for someone like Tate? It's hard to go wrong with an Ohio State WR. KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. Poni has a bone to pick with Bob and KDKA TV right away due to their countdown of WPIAL players drafted into the NFL. Does Rob Gronkowski belong on a list like that? We poked for a few other names on or off the list. Terrelle Pryor was left off the list due to being selected in the supplemental draft. Pomp does get the feel that the Steelers will draft a QB next weekend. Bob is starting to get a little sense that it's not a foregone conclusion Aaron Rodgers returns to Pittsburgh. Bob reacted to LIV golf close to shutting down operations. Donny Football Debrief – The NFL has released the current & former players that will be announcing picks next weekend on the second night of the draft.

Bob talked about draft coverage over the years with the selection meeting coming to town in 2 weeks. Where does the job by Dan Muse rank among coaching jobs in major PGH sports in the last decade?

The Steelers are courting the top prospect out of the MAC as Emmanuel McNeil-Warren is set to visit. The 6'3 safety was a star on the Toledo defense.

Bob said there are a lot of uncertainties with the teams in town, which makes it hard to decide the closest to a championship. He still likes the pitching the Pirates can bring to a playoff series. Pomp thinks Aaron Rodgers with protection can make the Steelers a serious contender. Can the Penguins handle the playoff pressure that looks to be ahead of them? Does Bob think Griffin will win any MVP awards while in Pittsburgh?

What should the expectation be for Konnor Griffin? Is it fair to compare him to names like Andrew McCutchen or Barry Bonds? You can argue that he is a better prospect than both of those players were. Griffin has drawn comparisons to some of the best young players in the game today – can he exceed their numbers? KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show.

Bob thinks that Miami (OH) should make the tournament because of their 31-0 regular season. Bob says that it would not surprise him if Jamie Dixon came back to Pitt.

The latest from the longest-tenured Steelers insider Gerry Dulac is that the Steelers won't entertain drafting a QB until at least the 3rd round. Does that rule out anyone besides Fernando Mendoza and Ty Simpson? The CBS rankings aren't kind to Drew Allar. Who would the Steelers select? KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show.

Pomp said Romeo Doubs would be his choice for the first free agent for the Steelers to sign. Bob doesn't think a pair of the pending free agents make it back to Pittsburgh. A few fun ones for Bob before we wrapped up.

The Bills made a move for DJ Moore today, sending a 2nd round pick to the Bears in the exchange. This just reset the trade market as AJ Brown could be the next guy on the move. Is Moore better than DK Metcalf? The price seems pretty cheap, in terms of trade capital, for the Bills, but maybe they are close enough with Josh Allen to get over the top.

KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. Bob doesn't want to leave any stone unturned when it comes to the Steelers and quarterback – saying he would deal a day three pick for Anthony Richardson, but no way it could be better than a 5th round selection. The guys were distracted quickly because Pomp is on an afternoon walk. What were Pomp's worst subjects in school? Pomp is perplexed as to why the Penguins are having issues selling out the arena. He thinks the team not being a true contender in a bit could be a reason even though they are a great story this year.

For about 2 decades, the Steelers had no concern at QB and WR. For the last 5 years, they have had big concerns at both. Rumors are running rampant at the NFL Combine this week, which is oftentimes a spot for that sort of thing. One of the big rumors is the Steelers looking into Brian Thomas Jr., who saw a decline in his second season after an electric rookie year. What would that price be and can the Steelers afford it?

Antonio Brown has come to the defense of Ben Roethlisberger. But was it really AB? His social accounts seem to be operated by a few different people.

Nick Farabaugh told Donny on Monday night that Mike McCarthy ‘likes' Kyler Murray and his game. Would he be a real option as the Steelers next QB? Does his work ethic worry you? Does his ability worry you? The guys think there are some real questions with Murray's game all-around. He has real talent, but could be a classic case of talent that lacks hard work. Is McCarthy the man to unlock it? Poni said he would be interested with this move if the Cardinals ate some of his money and it didn't require a high draft pick. He also noted that we have seen QBs in the last few years that were drafted highly one place and finally flourished elsewhere, like Sam Darnold. Chris pointed out that Murray is oddly better outdoors than indoors. KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show.
