The NFL Combine returns to Indy after being shelved a year ago. And so we’re back too, updating you on who the Pittsburgh Steelers are talking with. For the first time, Steelers Depot has one of its own in attendance. Our Jonathan Heitritter is on scene conducting interviews and helping determine who the Steelers have spoken with.
Understand teams talk to a lot of players at the Combine, especially the underclassman who weren’t eligible/able to attend any of the college All-Star games. But these are all pieces of the puzzle to help us determine who the team is targeting in April’s draft.
This post will keep an updated list on all the names we know the team has spoken with. Please refresh it from time to time. It will not update automatically.
