Eagles Sign Woolen: Big Move in Free Agency

0:00On March 23rd, the Pittsburgh Steelers' 2022 NFL Draft Class is now completely gone from the roster. All seven picks from that year, selected under former General Manager Kevin Colbert, have moved on. From quarterback Kenny Pickett in the first round to late round guys like Chris Olodokin, none stuck around long-term. This offseason marked the final exit, with a wide receiver George Pickens traded to Dallas this year, and others like DeMarve and Leo released or signing elsewhere, including Calvin Austin, with a New York Giants and Connor Hayward in Las Vegas. Pickett went to Philadelphia last year, while Mark Robinson and Olodokin landed without Steelers' ties. Fans and analysts call it a disaster draft, especially as Colbert's farewell. It highlights rebuilding struggles, with the team now relying on later acquisitions to fill those spots from quarterback to linebacker. Looking back, a redraft using the same rounds and positions, spotlights mischances.

1:01Malik Willis at quarterback Alec Piers at White Receiver, Khalil Shakir later on, and Brock Purdy in the seventh round, were all available and have, shown more promise. Steelers' nation still feels distinct, but these what ifs remind everyone how one-backed class can set a franchise back years. Stay locked in with NFL News Today, AI-powered updates.
