Summary

Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, is joined by Wes Uhler of Steeler Nation Radio. The Pittsburgh Steelers always have detailed analysis on their top picks, but looking more at analytics and combine numbers vs. gameplay on tape could push the team between a pick like cornerbacks Trent McDuffie or Andrew Booth Jr. Which is the right way? Looking at relative athletic scores from Kent Lee Plat (@MathBomb on Twitter) shows certain players may be better fits for the Steelers like McDuffie, Jordan Davis, Leo Chenal, Christian Watson, Lewis Cine and Boye Mafe. History also shows how grading on those metrics might've helped avoid bad picks like Jarvis Jones and Artie Burns, while also would've confirmed the Steelers made the right moves with players like T.J. Watt and Ryan Shazier. That, and the hard discussion about what the Steelers have to do next after Dwayne Haskins' death. Follow Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques. Theme music is 'Soul Kick' by Ceddy P, and 'Too Easy' by Nerdboy. Both from their label Renaissance Music. Find more from their label here. This show is part of the Locked on Podcast Network.
