    Ranking the Steelers’ Top Draft Priorities (2026 NFL Draft)
    Mar 26 2026
    We’re back with another Steel City Underground podcast as we break down the Pittsburgh Steelers’ biggest priorities heading into the 2026 NFL Draft.

    With questions surrounding the quarterback position, the Aaron Rodgers situation still unresolved, and clear needs across the roster, this draft could define the direction of the franchise for years to come.

    Joe Kuzma dives into what matters most for the Steelers — from rebuilding the offensive line and adding weapons at wide receiver, to whether quarterback should really be the top priority. Is this a draft about finding a signal caller, or fixing the foundation first?

    Tune in for a full breakdown of the Steelers’ draft strategy, roster needs, and what to expect as draft day approaches.

    Do the Steelers Even Have a QB Plan? Rodgers, Howard, or Draft Strategy
    Mar 18 2026
    The Pittsburgh Steelers remain without a clear answer at quarterback, leaving fans and analysts wondering whether the team has a plan or is simply standing still. In this episode, Joe and Brian explore the top possibilities: could Aaron Rodgers re-join the team, is Will Howard a potential starter, or is this all part of a draft strategy?

    We break down the implications for the 2026 season, how the front office’s decisions—or indecision—could shape the team’s future, and what fans should be watching as the offseason unfolds.

  • Initial Reactions to the Steelers Offseason Moves

    Initial Reactions to the Steelers Offseason Moves
    Mar 11 2026
    In this episode, we share our initial reactions to the latest Pittsburgh Steelers offseason moves and discuss what they could mean for the team heading into the 2026 NFL season.

    The Pittsburgh Steelers made several notable additions this offseason, including wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr., running back Rico Dowdle, cornerback Jamel Dean, and safety Darnell Savage. Pittsburgh also retained several of its own players by bringing back cornerback Asante Samuel Jr., linebacker Cole Holcomb, and punter Cameron Johnston.

    We break down how these roster changes affect the team, discuss which additions could have the biggest impact, and look at what positions Pittsburgh may still address next. We also touch on the departures of guard Isaac Seumalo, cornerback James Pierre, and running back Kenneth Gainwell.

    Unpacking Every Steelers Quarterback Option for 2026
    Feb 19 2026
    The Pittsburgh Steelers enter the 2026 offseason with one defining question: who will be the starting quarterback next season?

    In this episode, Joe and Brian take a deep dive into every path the Steelers could take, from an Aaron Rodgers return to the possibility of handing the offense to Will Howard after a year of development.

    We explore the veteran quarterbacks who could become available due to contract situations and cap decisions, including Kirk Cousins, Kyler Murray, Tua Tagovailoa, and Derek Carr, and how each one would fit in Pittsburgh. We also examine the free‑agent market, potential bridge options, and the top quarterback prospects in the upcoming NFL Draft who align with the Steelers’ long‑term vision.

    If you want a complete, informed, and forward‑looking breakdown of the Steelers’ quarterback plan for 2026, this episode covers every angle.

  • What can the Steelers learn from the Seahawks’ Super Bowl win?

    What can the Steelers learn from the Seahawks’ Super Bowl win?
    Feb 12 2026
    The Steelers don’t need to copy the Seahawks’ Super Bowl blueprint, but there are real lessons worth paying attention to.

    Joe and Brian break down how Seattle built a defense with depth and speed, why their run game became the stabilizing force of their championship push, and how a quarterback‑friendly structure kept everything on schedule.

    The hosts look at what parts of that formula actually translate to Pittsburgh, how the current roster fits those ideas, and what the new coaching staff can borrow as they shape a new identity.
