Steelers podcast: How cap space will Pittsburgh really have to work with?
By Tommy Jaggi
On this episode of the Still Curtain Podcast, Tommy Jaggi and Shayne Kubas use the salary cap calculator to determine how much money the Steelers could have in 2023.
Recently, Pittsburgh Steelers senior defensive assistant and linebackers coach, Brian Flores, took a job with the Minnesota Vikings to become their defensive coordinator. On the Still Curtain Podcast, we talk about what his departure means for the team and why it wasn’t realistic that he could have stayed in Pittsburgh.
In addition to the Flores news, Senior Bowl week is now in the rearview mirror, and we broke down the all-22 film to talk about some of the offensive linemen the Steelers should be targeting in the 2023 NFL Draft.
One of the biggest questions surrounding the Steelers right now is their current lack of salary cap — even with the substantial cap increase announced for 2023. Tommy Jaggi and Shayne Kubas use the salary cap calculator to predict how much money the Pittsburgh Steelers could have to work with during the 2023 offseason and detail some of the fee agents they could target.
Here’s what Still Curtain discusses in this episode:
- What Brian Flores’ departure means for Steelers
- Senior Bowl week standouts on the offensive line
- Salary cap calculator: Predicting Pittsburgh’s spending money
- How to prioritize spending money in free agency
