The offseason is always a time for teams to bolster their roster. Between free agency and the NFL Draft, roster shake-ups aren't uncommon. The new Pittsburgh Steelers front office has already shown that they aren't content with running it back with the roster this team had in 2022.

General Manager, Omar Khan, and Assistant GM, Andy Weidl, have already made more moves than expected during the 2023 free agency period. Now the NFL Draft is on the horizon, and Pittsburgh owns seven selections -- three of which will be inside the top 50 overall picks. With new talent soon to be added to the roster, here are four Steelers players who could get cut following the 2023 NFL Draft.

4. Steelers could cut OG Kendrick Green

This move seems destined to happen. Kendrick Green made the roster by the skin of his teeth in 2022, but he played so poorly during the preseason that I'm not sure he would have if he wasn't a former third-round pick. This year, it's an easy prediction to assume that Green will be gone.

I pleaded with the Steelers not to move Green back to guard, as he already struggled with power and anchoring ability at center. Things went from bad to worse in his second NFL season, and he could be left trying to find a new home soon.

I already thought this would be the case, but the Steelers are sure to add at least one offensive lineman in the NFL Draft. If another interior OL is added, you can bet your bottom dollar that Kendrick Green will get cut at some point after the draft.
