ESPN NFL insider Brooke Pryor joined the show. Brooke said Aaron Rodgers doesn't want to be around for things that aren't mandatory and labeled him as a ‘wild card.' Brooke doesn't have the sense that Rodgers wants to play for someone else – she said the expectation is that he will be the Steelers QB, but that could show some cracks if we get later into the summer. Brooke doesn't think the Kirk Cousins scenario would take place until training camp, if it ever does. Brooke said it feels like a game of chicken with Rodgers as we venture close to June. Brooke said the Joe Rogan podcast is not part of her Spotify playlist. Is there a reason we should be buying stock in Roman Wilson in 2025? Brooke thinks Broderick Jones is a Top 5 most important Steeler going into the season. Brooke said she won't raise any red flags on the TJ Watt situation until we get to training camp if a deal is still not done.

Nick and Danny discuss Pittsburgh's interest in Shedeur Sanders, and how Browns fans would react if he comes a Steeler.
About a week away from the NFL Draft we are still wondering what the future looks like for George Pickens. Would he net them a 2nd round pick in return to get the Steelers back into that round? Gerry Dulac doesn't think the team will trade the troubled WR next weekend – in fact, he said it with certainty. The guys went through some of the antics Pickens took part in late last season. Should the Steelers be patient about the offense with Pickens and DK Metcalf as their top 2 threats? Is there a way for both guys to get theirs in this offense? Is it naive for the Steelers to think it will work? If the Steelers are going with the all-in approach with Aaron Rodgers, should they keep their WR corps at full strength? Do fans think the Steelers have a clue on offensive approach? Caller took shot at legendary Pittsburgh weatherman. Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. Mike said we are all stuck waiting on Aaron Rodgers and there's no new development. Mike said the situation in New Orleans with Derek Carr is interesting to note. Mike reminded us that the Vikings door still isn't fully closed on Rodgers. Mike questioned if the Steelers would say NO to Rodgers at any point this offseason, even if it's training camp. Mike doesn't think it's impossible to have Shedeur Sanders at the same time as Rodgers, but referenced the coin flip it is to draft a QB in their draft slot. Mike thinks after the Saints, the Seahawks may be the only team that has interest in Sanders. Mike does not see Mason Rudolph going into the season as the starter if the goal is to win a playoff game or more. The guys asked Mike if the TJ Watt Instagram post means anything significant and if it means more than his contract price. Mike talked about long ago when the Steelers used to have a revolving door at edge rusher, but it kept working. Mike said the trade market for Watt depends on how the 1st round goes for needy teams.

“The individual stuff is great, but you truly measure greatness by what your team does.” Cam Heyward Pittsburgh Steelers All-Pro Ryan, Channing and Fred sit down with the heartbeat of the Pittsburgh Steelers, NFL Pro Bowler and All-Pro defensive tackle, Cam Heyward who joins the guys to talk about his football legacy, personal struggles, roster changes, quarterback questions and his relentless pursuit of a Super Bowl championship. Being drafted in the first round by Pittsburgh in 2011 wasn't just about Cam playing for one of the NFL's premiere organizations, it was the chance for Cam to write the next chapter of his story back in his birthplace, a city that holds a special place to his family. In a moment of personal reflection, Cam speaks of losing his father, Craig “Ironhead” Heyward, and the depression he battled silently from it, almost derailing his young football career. He credits his mother for stepping up, not just as a parent but as an advocate for his football future, making sure coaches knew exactly what kind of player and man they were getting. Cam's rookie year was also the year Ryan was a captain of the Steelers defense as the two exchange funny stories and talk about the player Cam became and all the different talents and guys who've played for the black and yellow since. Cam opens up about playing alongside his younger brother, Connor Heyward, and how their relationship has evolved from siblings to friends to teammates. He shares what he's learned from past Steelers legends and how he holds his current teammates to the same high standard that was expected of him. He even reveals some of his instigation tactics during practice used to generate a "Steeler" type of locker-room energy. And, we all know Mike Tomlin as one of the greatest coaches and leaders but Cam sheds insight into his bond with Mike T and some of what we don't see from the outside, explaining how the unconditional trust and respect goes far beyond the field and is never questioned. Beyond the game, giving back is always at the forefront of Cam's daily routine. After multiple nominations, Heyward won the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award in 2023, and he opens up about the surreal feeling of earning the NFL's highest honor for community service and the forever gratitude of this accomplishment. But for Cam, legacy isn't just about awards it's about chasing greatness, proving doubters wrong, and leaving behind a name that stands for perseverance and impact. He makes it clear his career won't feel complete without a Super Bowl- He isn't ready to give up the quest for a Lombardi just yet and feels Pittsburgh has the right balance of new faces and veterans to get it done.
