Steelers Afternoon Drive: What is Steelers Plan for all this Cap Space?

Welcome to the Steelers Afternoon Drive, our new daily podcast featuring all the latest Steelers news and analysis.

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers. On today’s episode, we discuss the NFL Salary Cap increasing tremendously, potentially all the way to $281.5 million. This would be up from $255.4 million. How can the Steelers utilize all of this space? Would it be smart to get out in front of contract extensions? Are the players even worth paying that they could? We then discuss the idea of acquiring Matthew Stafford, including what it would cost and the likelihood. What does the QB position look like for the Steelers if it isn’t Justin Fields or Russell Wilson? What are our expectations for Troy Fautanu and Roman Wilson after lost rookie seasons? Are the Steelers backed into a corner when it comes to George Pickens? Let’s go for another Steelers Afternoon Drive and discuss!
