Several higher-end free agent additions, relative to what Pittsburgh does anyway, as Kevin Colbert has been aggressive with the rare cap space he has. We’ll continue to cover the rest of the moves they make in free agency.

Recap of 2022 Pre-Free Agency Weekend Friday Night 5 Questions

Question 1: 12 of 15 Steelers Depot Respondents said Deshaun Watson will not be traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Two respondents were firm maybes.

Less than four hours after the Friday Night Five questions went up on the site, Kimberly Martin of ESPN included the Steelers as “teams I’ve been told that have been interested in Deshaun Watson for a while – and/or were closely monitoring today’s (Friday) grand jury outcome in a Friday night tweet.” Wonder who her source is? Watson’s agent?

Question 3: Marcus Mariota is the ideal quarterback free agent signing by the Steelers. He edged out Teddy Bridgewater and Mitch Trubisky by one vote. The only quarterbacks receiving more than one vote. For the Steeler organization, Trubisky proved to be the ideal free agent as he signed a two-year contract to join the Steelers.

Question 4: The Steelers re-sign Terrell Edmunds according to 11 of 15 respondents. Reports are he is testing the market.

Question 5:  A slight majority of 8 of 15 believe the Steelers re-sign Chuks Okorafor. The Steelers announced signing Chuks to a three-year deal on Monday.

Question 6 (Bonus Round!): The Steelers do not re-sign JuJu Smith-Schuster by one vote (8 to 7). Will he stay or will he go?

Here are the consensus responses of Steelers Depot respondents compared to the correct answers:
