There's something to be said for already having a number one or a one-a NFL running back in the house,

but there'd be more to be said if there were another guy as well. Good afternoon to you. I'm Dan Kovach,

which of D.K. Pittsburgh Sports. This is the new double shot show. I've got concerns about that

position, but only in the context that it sure feels like a real investment is going to be involved in replacing Najee Harris.

And yes, Najee's gone. I just, you just, I don't know that in all the years I've been covering

this team, I don't know that I've ever seen so many signals sent out by both parties

that, yeah, this guy is gone. Everybody seems to know this. Most important,

Najee, who has a say in this now, seems to know this. Who do you replace him with?

What do you replace him with? What are you looking for? Are you looking for someone who's a lot like

Jalen who can operate within the same schemes, kind of the same way that Art Rooney was talking about

how he'd like to have quarterbacks who are of a similar skill set, presumably referencing Justin

Fields, so that he can, so that Arthur Smith can have, I guess you could call it a luxury of being able to use the same type of schemes. Or do you say, if you go back to the time of Levion Bell and DeAngelo Williams where you had two completely different types of runners.

You had Lev with a hesitation waiting out his hole, and then you had DeAngelo, who was just the hard slasher.

If you do that with the running backs next year, are you making life more complicated for your young offensive line my feeling on

this is that i'd like to see the steelers okay you can do this with every position but i'd like to see

the steelers draft running back okay but to see, you can't do that in a vacuum.

I can start every episode with.

Wouldn't it be great if the Steelers drafted this position and then tomorrow do another one and say it's another position?

I believe that in this class, you don't need to be doing first round running backs. I don't even know that you need to be doing it in the second round. I think if you end up with one in the top three picks, you should have someone. I know that the concept of a fourth round running back starts to get a little bit scary around here because you're thinking that everybody's going to be Anthony McFarland or someone in that family. They also can be Jalen who was undrafted.

But there does need to be an investment in the position. I've not gotten any indications that

it's the priority or that it'll be the priority if Naji's not around and you're still

looking at defensive line from their perspective, wide receiver from mine, I don't have a vote.
