Locked On Steelers – Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh Steelers

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers announced their first depth chart of training camp, and Christopher Carter gives you his biggest winners. Roman Wilson was named as a starter and the WR3 of the roster, which is indicative of his improvements with Aaron Rodgers in the offense. Chris explains how Wilson has found his fastball in the offense, and shows what DK Metcalf said about Wilson's confidence that's made him a better player in practices. But what does that mean for Germie Bernard? Also, Yahya Black is named as the starting nose tackle of the defense. That's a big win for him, but also for Keeanu Benton, who can now play as a 3-technique on the defensive line. Are the Steelers putting together their defensive front of the future with Derrick Harmon, Black, Benton and even Gabriel Rubio who's had a good training camp so far. Also, Chris gives his thoughts on how the Rodgers situation played out on the Pat McAfee show, and how it could impact the Steelers only if Rodgers keeps putting himself on a national stage for controversy.

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Nick Farabaugh of PennLive.com.

The Pittsburgh Steelers had their second day of fully padded practices at training camp and their two most recent first round picks stood out big time. Christopher Carter and Nick Farabaugh talk about how Derrick Harmon and Max Iheanachor have looked strong in the early practices. Harmon's power is evident with how he dominates the line of scrimmage to the point that Aaron Rodgers is calling audibles to make sure the Steelers' offense doesn't run at him. Meanwhile, Iheanachor has showed off his quick feet in practice to win reps against star edge rushers like TJ Watt, Alex Highsmith and Nick Herbig. Also, Chris and Nick talk about how Mike McCarthy's passing attack is developing with Rodgers' playing more under center with a wider variety of quick passing concepts that involve DK Metcalf, Pat Freiermuth and Michael Pittman Jr. Could this be the factor that unlocks the rest of the offense? Finally, Chris and Nick review each of the players they've awareded players of practice to throughout camp, and assign some other winners and losers of the first week of practices. Has Roman Wilson stepped into a role that will make him a bigger factor in the offense?

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com.

The Pittsburgh Steelers had their first practice in full pads of training camp, but the pads weren't popping as practice remain less competitive. Christopher Carter and Alan Saunders discuss whether that's a good or a bad thing for Mike McCarthy's first year as head coach. Could the Steelers lose their competitive edge that has gotten them through so many tough games over the years? Or could they be setting themselves up to be healthier later in the season? Also, Chris and Alan give you their top players of practice number five at Saint Vincent College, and why the offensive line had a great day in the pass protection drills. Could Zach Frazier and Mason McCormick be an elite offensive line duo in the making? How did Max Iheanachor do? Finally, Chris and Alan discuss the Steelers' addition of safety Rayshawn Jenkins. The addition provides the Steelers another player who has traditionally played more as a strong safety, joining DeShon Elliott and Jaquan Brisker. Chris asks McCarthy if the need of a more experienced free safety is something the Steelers will address.

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers had a lively and interesting week one of training camp. Christopher Carter gives you his top performers so far and the biggest difference under Mike McCarthy. From the offense's DK Metcalf, Germie Bernard and Pat Freiermuth, to the defense's Asante Samuel Jr. and Jaquan Brisker, a lot of the team's top performers showed the Steelers could be ready to be better attacking through the air and defending the pass. Aaron Rodgers has shown how to get more out of McCarthy's offense with the wider vareity of quick passing concepts that can open up both the run game and the deep passing game. And, Chris goes into the biggest differences from McCarthy's practices so far from how Mike Tomlin ran training camp. McCarthy's practices focus more on individual drills and working on fundamentals without competing against each other, while Tomlin's practice grilled fundamentals through competition betwen the offense and defense. But which method is better for the Steelers in the long run? Finally, Chris gets you ready for week two of training camp as the pads are about to go on and the team is about to hit for the first time this year. Who are the players Chris is looking to see the most out of when those pads go on? Can the offensive line show major progress this year with Troy Fautanu, Mason McCormick and Zach Frazier? And can the younger defensive linemen in Derrick Harmon, Keeanu Benton and Yahya Black become a dominant force of the future?
