Summary

April 7, 2026 - Season 16, Episode 116 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing the offseason schedule that the Pittsburgh Steelers released since our last show. We go over how it differs this year and how we are still awaiting the dates of the team's rookie minicamp. Tony Pauline recently had an update on former Indiana WR Omar Cooper Jr. as it relates to him potentially being the Steelers' first round selection this year, so we go over that little tidbit. Alex and I also look at two other wide receivers in this year’s draft class, Elijah Sarratt out of Indiana and Denzel Boston out of Washington, as it relates to them both checking a ton of boxes when it comes to what the Steelers look for from measurable and testing standpoints. Is former Miami QB Carson Beck a legitimate draft option for the Steelers this year? We address that question on the heels of something posted recently by Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Alex and I also look at how many boxes that Beck checks on the old list of qualities that Bill Parcells used to adhere to. As part of those boxes checked conversation, Alex and I name several other quarterbacks that fit that list. Alex recently graded all the notable offseason free agent additions made by the Steelers up until this point, so we go over each of those and where we slightly differ with each player. This 89-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above and we end this show by answering several emails we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.
