Mark Kaboly joins the show to talk Steelers, Pirates, and more.
Mark is ok with T.J. Watt holding out for a contract. The longer the Steelers wait, it's likely going to cost them more money after a possible Micah Parsons or Trey Hendrickson deal. Mark doesn't think there's a downside for Watt. Is Jalen Ramsey a corner or safety? Mark was told he's viewed as an outside corner that can play inside.

NHL reporter Sean Gentille from The Athletic joined the show. The Penguins have picks 11 and 12 in the opening round of the NHL Draft tonight and Sean isn't sure if it's in their best interest to move up. Sean said being in the first 9 picks would be ideal. He mentioned that it could turn into a crapshoot like it normally does. Sean noted that the Islanders are a team to watch tonight. Sean looked at what Kyle Dubas has on his plate heading into the weekend and what type of players the Pens could be looking for. With free agency looming, Dubas has plenty in front of him. We also witnessed Mark Kaboly boot Sean off the air – a first in our history.
At least one NFL insider gets the sense TJ Watt will get more money than Myles Garrett. Is that good business by the Steelers? Chris said the idea of ‘keeping up with the Joneses' doesn't apply to the Cleveland Browns. It would be different if Watt helped win a lot of big games, but he has zero playoff wins in his career and he's done very little individually in those games. We got into the debates that have happened between Steelers & Browns fans over their top defensive players. Chris noted he thinks the deal the Browns gave Garrett was a mistake too, but that organization is used to that. We can acknowledge that Watt has been the better player than Garrett, but it doesn't mean you should pay for his future. We dove a little bit more into the TJ Watt contract standoff.

Steelers correspondent Mark Kaboly from The Pat McAfee Show joined the show. Mark shared his excitement for the WWE super-show in town on Monday. The discussion turned to TJ Watt after that and if he will get more money than Myles Garrett. Kaboom isn't convinced this will be the final deal Watt signs with the Steelers, but he does think it will be the final multi-year deal. Mark said the Steelers need to move Watt around more to see results. More w/ Mark – The guys talked about the latest Aaron Rodgers interview and how he seemed genuine about his intentions and goals with the Steelers. It feels like Rodgers is a lot more real than Russell Wilson, even though Wilson was a good guy. How much improv will we get from Rodgers in the offense? Mark isn't convinced the Steelers will add anything to their offense. Chris made the push for Amari Cooper, but we haven't heard his name around any NFL team. Mark said they don't like to sign free agents that have injury concerns. Mark doesn't think anyone ‘good' will be getting cut in August. More w/ Mark – Mark gave his Top 5 Steelers since 2000.

The Steelers need Broderick Jones to take a significant step and be a good left tackle. Mark Kaboly thinks he's always been athletic, but hasn't had enough time at left tackle. Kaleb Johnson has great potential and Mark thinks he will have "much better" numbers than Najee Harris in his Steelers career.
Hour 3 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: Should the Penguins sign a big-time free agent? Bob thinks players would still want to play with Sidney Crosby but Austin doesn't think it's nearly as great of a selling point with the Penguins not winning. Mark Kaboly and Crowley think the Steelers are much different this year. The Steelers have by far the highest paid defense in the NFL.
Tyrese Haliburton tore his Achilles in game 7. He had a calf injury in The Finals and knew the risks of still playing in The Finals. Mark Kaboly didn't hear anything on if the Steelers were in on Jaire Alexander. Mark thinks "things could go south in a hurry" at corner. Mark thinks they are listening on a potential Jalen Ramsey deal, but where would he play?
