4 free agents the Steelers must sign to fill remaining holes
By Andrew Falce
With the draft wrapped up, the Steelers should target these four free agents to fill the remainder of their holes.
The Steelers filled out their roster well enough through the draft, but despite adding some promising players, the team still has holes. With some cap space left, adding some free agents would be a wise move to fill out the rest of this roster. Here are the four available free agents that the Steelers should sign to complete their roster.
Steelers should sign Crosby
The Steelers failed to draft any offensive linemen during the draft after attacking the group heavily in free agency. Looking at the interior of the group, the roster is likely set, as players there will be fighting it out for starter and backup roles as opposed to just making the roster. At tackle though, the team is a little light on options.
Beyond the starters and the versatile Joe Haeg, the Steelers are lacking at tackle. A name that makes a lot of sense is Tyrell Crosby, formally from the Lions. Crosby has the skills to be a proper swing tackle and can play on either side of the line. A little on the shorter side, he makes up for it by blocking with good technique.
At one point in time, the Lions viewed Crosby as a starter along their line. That was until they had the opportunity to draft Penei Sewell. He was placed on IR at the beginning of last season and enter free agency without a lot of fanfare. That said, the talent is there for Crosby. At worst, he can be a capable and versatile reserve tackle for this team and would be worth being bright in right now.
