In this clip from the Thursday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette insider Christopher Carter to react to the team's roster decisions at the wide receiver position. Have GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin closed the door on a move for an outside WR2? With names like Amari Cooper and Marquez Valdes-Scantling off the market and Gabe Davis still not getting an offer despite multiple visits to the team? Are Roman Wilson, Calvin Austin III and others enough behind DK Metcalf? Especially in the event of injury? How much can OC Arthur Smith's offense really rely on tight ends like Jonnu Smith, Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington in the passing game? And can 41-year-old Aaron Rodgers effectively distribute the ball to all of those targets? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

Mike Florio joins the conversation. He says that Father Time is undefeated and there shouldn't be too much looking into it if he has a good year. He brings up the fact that Brett Favre's second year in Minnesota was a disaster. We are once again talking about a WR2 for the Steelers. The Steelers have four quarterbacks on the roster. What is Mike's reaction to the Kenny Pickett trade?

Mark Kaboly says that the Steelers are content with going into the season with Calvin Austin and Roman Wilson as the compliments at wide receiver for DK Metcalf and are not actively shopping for a WR2. The guys discuss if this is the right move(it is not). 

Patrick Claybon, Adam Rank, and Cynthia Frelund dive into the critical RB2 and WR2 questions for your upcoming fantasy drafts. NFL.com's #1 RB Bijan Robinson joins the show to discuss his fantasy outlook and promote College Colors Day. Cynthia highlights her latest projections on the top TD leaders at QB, WR, and RB. The crew also breaks down 3 rookies and 3 veterans with similar fantasy rankings, and questions whether Travis Kelce’s engagement could impact his 2025 fantasy projections.

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers. On today's episode, we discuss if Roman Wilson can put his stamp on the WR2 job and prevent the team from acquiring another WR, if there's any change in the contract status of Cam Heyward and or Chris Boswell and discuss what to watch for in the team's preseason finale.

In this episode, I discuss the latest on the Steelers with Darren Steele (@DJSBurgh). We discuss how Roman Wilson might be the answer at WR2, how Kaleb Johnson looked, who might get cut, if starters should play in the preseason, and more!

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley open the second hour wondering if the fans’ expectations have changed at all after a couple of preseason games and if so, for better or for worse? They look ahead and discuss how long it takes for a QB to hit their stride in an offense. The guys discuss the lack of a set WR2 behind Courtland Sutton and how much that matters. What’s Trending? An easy opponent for week 1 (according to Mike), no surprises in Cleveland, and realignment in the MLB coming soon.

On the Tuesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey welcomes Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to analyze the team's situation at wide receiver and in the running game. Should fans be alarmed about Calvin Austin III's injury after he suggested there is a chance he may miss NFL Week 1 against the New York Jets? Would Gabe Davis be an adequate replacement at WR2 behind DK Metcalf, following his latest visit with the team for a physical? And where does Roman Wilson belong in the pecking order after his strong preseason? Our duo tackles those questions, then takes stock of the way Arthur Smith's offense has run the ball thus far. Did Kaleb Johnson show improvement against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers? Do young offensive linemen Broderick Jones, Troy Fautanu, Mason McCormick and Zach Frazier need to show they can perform when they count before fans can really count on the unit? And how much of a difference with Darnell Washington, Pat Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith make for the blocking schemes when they're in the lineup more regularly?

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley open today’s show with Mike telling us all about his busy weekend between going to a Rockies game, golfing with Zach Bye, and watching a deep Broncos team dominate the Cardinals. They share their key takeaways from the Broncos’ 2nd preseason game, should they be looking for some trade partners for their surplus of talent? Sean Payton has a type and the guys highlight how it has helped the Broncos’ speedy rebuild and they also highlight one of those players that fit the Payton archetype: Pat Bryant. What is the WR pecking order after 2 weeks of the preseason? Mike and Stoke answer texts about Evan Engram and the WR2 position and they finish the hour talking about an unfortunate mistake that made it to air.

We reacted to the Steelers preseason loss to the Buccaneers on Saturday night. No big concerns over the outcome of the game, but the game produced a question as we get closer to the regular season – do the Steelers have a plan at WR2? Roman Wilson showed us a little something in the game, but Calvin Austin is still hurt and the Steelers have Gabe Davis coming in for his second visit in almost as many months.

Roman Wilson showed us a little something in the game, but Calvin Austin is still hurt and the Steelers have Gabe Davis coming in for his second visit in almost as many months. How much weight can you carry preseason performances with? Do the Steelers value a WR2? Pirates pre-post game host Dan Zangrilli joined the show. Dan had play-by-play duties for the games Saturday and Sunday at Wrigley Field – unfortunately, both Pirates losses. What did Dan think of some of his calls when listening back to his broadcasts? Dan said he took some ivy off the wall at Wrigley before coming back home. Dan doesn't expect to call another Pirates game this season, but future games could be in the works.

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette insider Christopher Carter to analyze the team's increasing volume of injuries during Steelers training camp. How much will Will Howard's hand injury -- which reportedly will keep him out at least three weeks -- stymie his progress in challenging Mason Rudolph for the No. 2 QB job? How much should fans worry about Calvin Austin III, who's missed several practices as he looks to prove he can be a capable WR2 behind DK Metcalf? And have the absences of names like Jonnu Smith, Joey Porter Jr., Isaac Seumalo and others simply been the normal wear and tear of camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe? Our duo tackles those questions, then talks receivers. Is Roman Wilson starting to turn a corner in his chemistry with QB Aaron Rodgers after a highlight-reel catch Tuesday? Is Scotty Miller still in the mix to make the roster despite failing to see the field much with Justin Fields and Russell Wilson in 2024? Could the Steelers still make a move for a veteran like Amari Cooper? Or are they confident in their depth and other veterans like Robert Woods and Ben Skowronek.

Craig welcomes on CBS Sports front office analyst Joel Corry to break down how the Terry McLaurin contract negotiations are playing out. Corry explains why he has a hard time seeing Terry sign for less than Tee Higgins, who landed top WR2 money. They also discuss whether McLaurin could command $60 million guaranteed like DK Metcalf, Terry's reputation for being QB-proof, and whether his agent, Buddy Baker, is helping or hurting negotiations.

On this week's episode of THE G PERSPECTIVE, GMike is joined again by CL KID & they speak about the following topics:-Travis Hunter listed on the Jacksonville Jaguars' depth chart as WR2 & CB4.-Shedeur Sanders will start the pre-season opener for the Cleveland Browns.-Contracts extensions for Kyren Williams of the Los Angeles Rams & De'Aron Fox.PLEASE SUBSCRIBE, LIKE & LEAVE REVIEWS!!!

Bo Nix enters Broncos camp with maturity and college experience. But does that mean he's close to his ceiling, or just getting started? We dive into whether Sean Payton can elevate the rookie QB, break down the RB battle between JK Dobbins and RJ Harvey, and examine the target pecking order behind Courtland Sutton. Plus, could Evan Engram be the true "Joker" mismatch weapon Payton has longed for? And don't miss the deep sleeper name fantasy managers should be watching this preseason.Joe Bond is joined by Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post. Make sure to follow him on Twitter @ParkerJGabriel.

Steel City Insider Podcast, Episode #151 – Show Notes

August 4 – Ep. 66: On this episode of The Depot Dive, Ross McCorkle and Joe Clark discuss the defensive domination and offensive struggles through the first half of training camp. For the second topic, we discuss the WR2 position as Aaron Rodgers struggles to build chemistry with some of his younger teammates. For the third topic, we discuss the injuries along the offensive line and the disappointing start to camp for Broderick Jones. To wrap things up, we have a discussion about Darnell Washington saying he thinks he could play offensive tackle and why that transition is more feasible than you may think. Thank you for joining us for this 28-minute episode, and we hope to see your thoughts in the comment section.

93.7 The Fan Sports Director Jeff Hathhorn joined the show. How are things beginning to shake out at WR2 for the Steelers? The guys asked Jeff about his chat with Arthur Smith. Jeff explained why tackle could always be in the future for Darnell Washington, but it's definitely too late to do it for this season. Is Broderick Jones really struggling to the level that we are all hearing? Jeff doesn't think a Terry McLaurin trade is likely, but he said it is hard calling anything is impossible under Omar Khan. Is Will Howard the most-hyped 6th round pick of all-time? Jeff said the offense has been a little concerning, but the offensive line has only been fully together for one day of padded practices.

Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji talk NFL fantasy Football AFC North. Cincinnati Bengals: Noah Fant joins Mike Gusecki in a deep tight-end room, but Gusecki remains the preferred late-round fantasy option due to existing chemistry with Joe Burrow. Cleveland Browns: With Deshaun Watson re-injuring his Achilles and Joe Flacco (40) leading the depth chart, the quarterback situation remains murky. Shadur Sanders shows promise but needs development. Pittsburgh Steelers: Aaron Rodgers targets DK Metcalf heavily, but the dual-tight-end approach with Pat Friermuth and Jonu Smith makes both fantasy-viable. Baltimore Ravens: DeAndre Hopkins joins Zay Flowers, but Flowers remains the WR1. Derrick Henry anchors the backfield, with Justice Hill as a strong PPR stash. Team context: The episode emphasized how team schemes (like Pittsburgh's two-TE sets and Baltimore's triple-option look) will influence fantasy outcomes.

Will Petersen and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth kick off the fourth hour debating Marvin Mims’ role on the team, is he set to take the WR2 role or is he still a special teams/gadget player? The guys fight through technical difficulties to take on The Drive’s best shot at trivia before they set expectations, both optimistic and realistic, for the Broncos. Will, Stink, and Stoke finish today’s show looking at some of the latest power rankings and where the Broncos stack up against the rest of the NFL.  

Will Petersen and Brandon Stokley open today’s show recapping a chippy practice from yesterday. They speculate how many more days the Broncos have of padded practice and how they’ll handle the rest of camp. Riley Moss had a breakout year in 2024 but is his job as the CB2 safe after the Broncos drafted Jahdae Barron? Will and Stoke discuss. The guys debate who should be the WR2 next to Courtland Sutton and Will ties to make the case for Marvin Mims. Another outlet is bullish on the Denver defense this season, have they shown enough in camp to back it up?

Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji talk NFL fantasy football AFC east position battles. The AFC East may not boast the flashiest fantasy options, but its positional battles could provide league-winning value for savvy managers. Hosts Munaf Manji and Rod Villagomez dissected the division's key situations with a focus on deep-league stashes and late-round upside. In Buffalo, James Cook remains the lead back after averaging 4.9 yards per carry and scoring 18 touchdowns, but Munaf and Rod spotlighted Ray Davis, who logged 478 rushing and 189 receiving yards with six total touchdowns, as the preferred backup over Ty Johnson. The Bills' receiver room also offers intrigue: Khalil Shakir led with 120 targets for 995 yards and four touchdowns, but Keon Coleman, who had 578 yards and four scores as a rookie, was pegged for a breakout as he battles newcomer Joshua Palmer for the WR2 role. For Miami, the tight end room is unsettled after Jonnu Smith's departure, creating opportunities for Darren Waller, Pharaoh Brown or Julian Hill. At receiver, Munaf pushed Nick Westbrook-Akene, who tallied 497 yards and nine touchdowns on 60 targets, as a touchdown-dependent but intriguing flex option over Malik Washington, who managed 223 yards on 36 targets. In New York, the focus shifted to the WR3 battle between veteran Alan Lazard, who had 530 yards and six touchdowns, and rookie Arian Smith, a dynamic Georgia product with 817 collegiate yards and four touchdowns. Both hosts leaned toward Smith for long-term value while framing Justin Fields' season as a redemption tour in a relatively low-pressure environment, making him a viable QB2 with upside. In New England, Ramondre Stevenson's 14 career fumbles, half of which came last season, put him on thin ice, opening the door for rookie Trevion Henderson, a second-round pick from Ohio State, to carve out a meaningful role. Demario Douglas led Patriots receivers with 621 yards, but Munaf identified 6'4” veteran Mac Hollins, who scored five touchdowns last season, as a sneaky red-zone threat and deep sleeper, particularly if Stefon Diggs needs time to recover from his ACL injury. The episode concluded with a shared philosophy: these AFC East names may not headline drafts, but they are exactly the types of players who become early-season waiver-wire priorities. Drafting them late provides a strategic edge, especially in deeper leagues or superflex formats where depth and upside separate contenders from pretenders. As Munaf put it, these are the players “you might as well just pick up and hope for the best.” This breakdown of Buffalo's backfield, Miami's receiving depth, the Jets' WR3 competition, and New England's RB and WR rooms offers actionable insights for managers looking to squeeze value from one of the NFL's less-heralded divisions.

Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji talk NFL fantasy football AFC east position battles. The AFC East may not boast the flashiest fantasy options, but its positional battles could provide league-winning value for savvy managers. Hosts Munaf Manji and Rod Villagomez dissected the division's key situations with a focus on deep-league stashes and late-round upside. In Buffalo, James Cook remains the lead back after averaging 4.9 yards per carry and scoring 18 touchdowns, but Munaf and Rod spotlighted Ray Davis, who logged 478 rushing and 189 receiving yards with six total touchdowns, as the preferred backup over Ty Johnson. The Bills' receiver room also offers intrigue: Khalil Shakir led with 120 targets for 995 yards and four touchdowns, but Keon Coleman, who had 578 yards and four scores as a rookie, was pegged for a breakout as he battles newcomer Joshua Palmer for the WR2 role. For Miami, the tight end room is unsettled after Jonnu Smith's departure, creating opportunities for Darren Waller, Pharaoh Brown or Julian Hill. At receiver, Munaf pushed Nick Westbrook-Akene, who tallied 497 yards and nine touchdowns on 60 targets, as a touchdown-dependent but intriguing flex option over Malik Washington, who managed 223 yards on 36 targets. In New York, the focus shifted to the WR3 battle between veteran Alan Lazard, who had 530 yards and six touchdowns, and rookie Arian Smith, a dynamic Georgia product with 817 collegiate yards and four touchdowns. Both hosts leaned toward Smith for long-term value while framing Justin Fields' season as a redemption tour in a relatively low-pressure environment, making him a viable QB2 with upside. In New England, Ramondre Stevenson's 14 career fumbles, half of which came last season, put him on thin ice, opening the door for rookie Trevion Henderson, a second-round pick from Ohio State, to carve out a meaningful role. Demario Douglas led Patriots receivers with 621 yards, but Munaf identified 6'4” veteran Mac Hollins, who scored five touchdowns last season, as a sneaky red-zone threat and deep sleeper, particularly if Stefon Diggs needs time to recover from his ACL injury. The episode concluded with a shared philosophy: these AFC East names may not headline drafts, but they are exactly the types of players who become early-season waiver-wire priorities. Drafting them late provides a strategic edge, especially in deeper leagues or superflex formats where depth and upside separate contenders from pretenders.

The Steelers still have a problem at WR2, yet their latest addition is Chuck Clark. The Yankees traded for Ryan Mcmahon, meaning that the Pirates may not trade Ke'Bryan Hayes.

Do the Steelers have a WR2 problem? It feels like the situation they had themselves in last season. The team seems overconfident that Calvin Austin can fill that void. What about Roman Wilson after just a handful of snaps last season? Robert Woods doesn't seem to be the man for the job either. Unless they use a deadly multi-TE set, they are running into a familiar issue.

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Christopher Carter and Brian Batko break down the biggest positional battles ahead of training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe. How does the secondary trio of Jalen Ramsey, Darius Slay and Joey Porter Jr. get used at CB/S now that Minkah Fitzpatrick is no longer in Pittsburgh? Are the LB/DL positions now primed to stop the run with the addition of rookie Derrick Harmon and T.J. Watt's new contract in tow? The guys also analyze camp battles between Jaylen Warren and Kaleb Johnson at RB, as well as who can emerge as Aaron Rodgers' true WR2 between players like Roman Wilson and Calvin Austin III. Who takes the TE1 job between Jonnu Smith, Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington, or will it be another Arthur Smith-run committee? For more sports, visit post-gazette.com.

The start of the Steelers season is today. There's plenty of excitement. What is the realistic path this year. Austin says 12-5 is the absolute ceiling. The tackles are a major question mark. What is the floor? 6 wins? Rodgers is bad, the run defense continues to struggle, the old guys look old, WR2 remains a weakness. Austin still predicts 10-7, but feels like it'll be a better season than last. Derrick Harmon has barely been discussed lately with all of the other big Steelers news. Jalen Ramsey is #66 on the NFL Top 100.

Is Arthur Smith going to utilize his talent properly? The General has a Skenes card of the week and highlights some big card releases.

Is Arthur Smith going to utilize his talent properly? The General has a Skenes card of the week and highlights some big card releases. Patrick Queen was worried about getting traded, maybe because he had a rough year. Losing Elandon Roberts might prove costly. A caller lectures us for thinking the Steelers are going to the Super Bowl (we don't think this). What are the Bengals thinking with their defense? Big Ben thinks it's the Super Bowl or bust this year? We listen to some of Aaron Rodgers' previous comments as we await his arrival today. Austin gives the 7 players/coaches he will have his eye on during Steelers camp. Tyler Kennedy is back in studio to compare Skenes to Sid, his memories from the first day of camp, Brooks Orpik's strength, his fastest mile, what it's like playing preseason games at home vs on the road, a story about his belongings catching on fire (it's an amazing story). TK tells a story about playing in beer league games and how a teenager tried to fight him, how he and his teammates handled the trade deadline and rumors. Mark Kaboly joins to give a sarcastic response about the Pirates, Aaron Rodgers has not appeared to the media, Jalen Ramsey has been reserved, Mark gets distracted by an expensive vehicle and then gets lost, Broderick Jones' outlook, and then Mark sees TJ Watt but doesn't wave to him. Dan Zangrilli reports live from the Pirates game and their impressive showing against the Tigers, Mitch Keller's trade outlook, his time with Chuck in Uniontown today. Jeff Hathhorn jumps on to discuss TJ Watt's media availability, his takeaways from Jalen Ramsey's comments.

Jason Walker breaks down the latest in Cache Valley related sports on the Full Court Press on 106.9 FM, 1390 AM The FAN. Utah State is returning two veteran tight ends, Broc Lane and Josh Sterzer. They give the Aggies a deep tight end room that Jason believes could make the USU offense dangerous when combined with a running QB in Bryson Barnes. Kyle Filipowki was named the Las Vegas Summer League MVP. The honor is a good one for the second-year big, though Jason cautioned being too optimistic about the kind of player Filipowski will become. Jordan Love was named the 68th-best player in the NFL according to its players. It's a drop from his No. 34 ranking last year, but Jason argues there's plenty of room to expect Love to have a return to his top form in 2025. Jalen Royals is also looking like he could be challenging to be the WR2 in Kansas City. A few weeks ago, a memo sent out by the College Sports Commission threatened to hurt Utah State's ability to provide NIL funds to its players

1. In the Broncos eyes, what does a successful step forward for Bo Nix in Year 2 look like? Based on your conversations with folks around the league, what is the overall sentiment about Bo Nix? 2. Based on the latest intel you have, which one of those four players (Courtland Sutton, Zach Allen, Nik Bonitto, John Franklin-Myers) would you say is the most likely to receive a contract extension and which one of those four is the least likely to get one? Is it reasonable to anticipate an extension or two getting done before Week 1?3. Do you see the Broncos and GM George Paton agreeing to an extension some time within the next 12 months, if not sooner?4. In free agency, the Broncos were selective, yet aggressive as they signed four notable players in S Talanoa Hufanga, LB Dre Greenlaw, TE Evan Engram, and RB J.K. Dobbins. While all four signees have had star-studded seasons recently, they also come with high injury risk. Which one of those free agent acquisitions do you think is most important when it comes to helping the Broncos achieve their full potential in 2025?5. What exactly does Jahdae Barron bring to the Broncos defense that was lacking in 2024?6. Is it reasonable for Broncos fans to expect R.J. Harvey to total 1000+ yards from scrimmage this season?7. Do the Broncos see Sai'Vion Jones as a strong candidate to replace John Franklin-Myers in 2026 should the latter depart in free agency?8. While there are currently four EDGE rushers ahead of him on the depth chart, would it surprise you if Que Robinson leapfrogs one of them at some point this season for reasons other than injury?9. If you had to bet today, which one of those four WR's (DeVaughn Vele, Pat Bryant, Marvin Mims, Troy Franklin) would be your favorite to eventually end up in that WR2 role for the Broncos?10. Record-wise, what would you say is the floor and ceiling for the 2025 Denver Broncos?

Ray Fittipaldo joins the show to talk about the Omar Khan extension, what this all means for Andy Weidl, what the Steelers' plan is for their defense this year, how Pittsburgh plans on using Jalen Ramsey, what he expects to see from Minkah Fitzpatrick in Miami, if Pat Freiermuth should feel threatened by Jonnu Smith, if the Steelers will still look for a WR2, what the latest is with TJ Watt, and more!

On a special Thursday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insider Brian Batko joins host Adam Bittner to analyze the team's receiving options following the acquisition of Jonnu Smith. Will OC Arthur Smith use the tight end more as a WR2 behind DK Metcalf? Given that Smith put up big receiving options last year with the Miami Dolphins? How will his presence impact the target share for guys like Pat Freiermuth, Darnell Washington, Calvin Austin III, Roman Wilson and Robert Woods? And can we put talk of signing free agents like Amari Cooper, Keenan Allen, Gabe Davis and Allen Lazard to rest with Smith in the fold? In the second segment, the guys talk safety options. Could GM Omar Khan try to sign one before training camp, with names like Justin Simmons, Julian Blackmon and Marcus Williams still available via NFL free agency? How much will Jalen Ramsey himself fill the void left by Minkah Fitzpatrick? What are reasonable expectations for Juan Thornhill? And what happens to the safety group if DeShon Elliott gets hurt. Our duo tackles those topics, plus some quick-hitters in the third segment. Have the Steelers really been doing things much differently under Khan? Or have they been more aggressive for a while now without perceptions of them keeping u[? Will Aaron Rodgers get any benefit from working with his receivers this week in Malibu, Calif.? And what should fans want to hear from Ramsey at his introduction?

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers. On today's episode, Mike DeFabo joins the show to discuss report about collusion in the NFL, if Roman Wilson is capable of stepping into a WR2 role, who will take on the short yardage role for the Steelers and Mike's path to covering the Steelers for the Athletic.

June 12 – Ep. 59: On this episode of The Depot Dive, Ross McCorkle and Joe Clark dive into the Aaron Rodgers signing and the various topics discussed during his introductory press conference. How much say does he want in the offense and what will the dynamic be between him and OC Arthur Smith? Ross gives reasons to get excited for Rodgers given his extensive list of injuries last season and an offensive scheme that will protect him better in Pittsburgh. For the second topic, we talk about the most notable quotes from the various coordinator and coach interviews including Calvin Austin III as the WR2, Derrick Harmon being named a starter and Rodgers being compared to Peyton Manning. We then dive into Adam Schefter's report about Aaron Rodgers being the Steelers' third option and some clarifying comments he made on Wednesday about Justin Fields and Matthew Stafford that were particularly interesting.
