Summary

Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast. The Pittsburgh Steelers have been known as a dink and dunk offense for the past few seasons with Ben Roethlisberger. Mike Tomlin and Matt Canada better have plans to change that with Mitch Trubisky and/or Kenny Pickett. Doing so would mean deeper passes to Pat Freiermuth, Diontae Johnson, Chase Claypool and George Pickens. A boost in the team's average depth per target could go a long way to fixing the offense and even helping Najee Harris run the ball. Also, a caller asks which wide receiver from the 2019 NFL Draft with a new 2021 quarterback will the best season: Diontae Johnson, D.K. Metcalf, A.J. Brown, Deebo Samuel or Terry McLaurin. Johnson isn't Chris Carter's top answer, but he's No. 2 on the list. Learn who's the one 2019 receiver who could receive the biggest jump.
