Summary

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Mike DeFabo of the Athletic. The Pittsburgh Steelers have to clear salary cap space, and there are some easy, and some difficult decisions to trade, keep or cut players before the 2024 season. Among the players to be looked at are Patrick Peterson, Chukwumaa Okorafor, Mason Cole, Larry Ogunjobi, and even Diontae Johnson. But where do Chris Carter and Mike DeFabo see the Steelers' best moves to improve the roster? Also, the guys talk about the Steelers' offensive coordinator search, and review the Locked on Steelers final grades for the offensive line on the season. How good was Broderick Jones' rookie year? Who was the top-graded offensive lineman? Find out here.
