Summary

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com. The Pittsburgh Steelers' top tight end, Pat Freiermuth has made waves his first two seasons in the NFL. But Pro Football Focus ranks him close to being elite, and Chris Carter and Alan Saunders are here to explain how Freiermuth completes the journey to become an elite tight end in 2023. Part of that answer will rely upon Freiermuth's ability to build a rapport with Kenny Pickett, especially in the red zone. Also, a caller asks about the potential for Steelers 4th round draft pick Nick Herbig to switch from outside linebacker to inside linebacker, as well as for seventh round draft pick Spencer Anderson to make the roster because of his ability to play all around the offensive line. That leads to a discussion about how the future of the NFL is changing, and why players who aren't tied to one specific position are becoming some of the most important playmakers in football.
