Summary

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast. The Pittsburgh Steelers completely replaced their top linebackers with Cole Holcomb, Elandon Roberts and Kwon Alexander. After two weeks of training camp, they've made a difference with their abilities to hit and cover, but it's a mixed bag of who has the right skills. How should the Steelers use them in their depth chart? Also, Nick Herbig has received praise from players like T.J. Watt, Broderick Jones and Alex Highsmith. What's he doing to earn respect and how could he be used in the Steelers' defense? Finally, the Steelers' defensive line looks like a complicated competition. Who are going to be the starters and make the rest of the depth chart? Cam Heyward, Larry Ogunjobi and DeMarvin Leal are obvious, but despite being listed fourth, Keeanu Benton should be getting a lot of snaps as well.
