Is Steelers' Derrick Harmon proving why he was the right NFL draft pick? Where is Roman Wilson?
Description
On the Tuesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Brian Batko to analyze the early results from first-round NFL draft pick Derrick Harmon.
Is he proving why he was worthy of being the team's first-round NFL draft pick, even over fellow standout rookies like the Giants' Jaxson Dart? How is his play opening up room for other members of the defense? Including names like T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward, Patrick Queen and Keeanu Benton? And how much room does he still have to grow as a rookie within coach Mike Tomlin's defense?
Our duo tackles those questions, then ponders the team's situation at wide receiver next to DK Metcalf. Why was Roman Wilson mostly invisible in NFL Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns? Even with Calvin Austin III out of the lineup because of injury? Is it a simple question of matchups and OC Arthur Smith's preference for tight ends like Darnell Washington and Jonnu Smith? Or is Wilson falling short in some areas? Why hasn't Scotty Miller been able to make a strong training camp and preseason translate to regular season games? And could Omar Khan make a trade for a receiver to help QB Aaron Rodgers, following a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter on the topic?
