The Steelers do look set at the Center position. They were always extremely high on Kendrick Green to be this team’s next center, but with Green’s limited snaps at the position the Steelers could opt to add an experienced option to the fold. Reiter could hold down the spot until Green is 100% ready to be the guy.

All offseason I’ve stated how much I believed the Steelers valued both Chuks Okorafor and Zach Banner. To date they have only proved me correct.

Bringing him into the mix would push the Steelers offense over the top and give Najee Harris some solid running lanes.

The 2021 NFL Draft is fast approaching. And it’s a big one for GM Ryan Pace, who enters the final year of the extension he signed in 2018. The same can be said for Head Coach Matt Nagy, the NFL Coach of the Year for his efforts in 2018, who aims to fix an offense that has been spinning its wheels since the start of 2019. Starting today,
we’re looking at some of the best prospects at various positions leading up to the Draft in search of fits for the Bears’ needs.
Today: Tight ends
Need: Not as high as you’d think, especially when considering one of their top returning options is entering his age 35 season and is largely a one-dimensional player at this stage of his career. But not as low as you’d want it to be on the needs list, especially when considering the team used its first of two second-round draft picks in 2020 on the first tight end off the board.
