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 were in the middle of a debate started by former Steelers safety Ryan Clark who said Steelers receiver George Pickens is more talented than Minnesota Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson. Patrick Peterson clarified the debate, adding that Pickens' raw talent gives him the chance to be elite, but that Jefferson's polished play makes him a savant, even if Pickens is more "talented" at the position. Chris Carter and Mike DeFabo of the Athletic debate. Also, both Patrick Peterson and Minkah Fitzpatrick talked about the potential of the Steelers' secondary to be a dangerous unit when it comes to making plays and forcing turnovers. Their communication skills on the field will be key, but so will the versatility and depth of the group to provide Mike Tomlin and defensive coordinator Teryl Austin various options for disguises and play calls. Also, how does Joey Porter Jr. fit in with those plans after his first training camp?
