3 Steelers who are salary cap steals

How do you equate value as it pertains to players in the NFL? Production combined with pay? Nothing but production? As I was thinking about this recently, I started to wonder what would be labeled a salary cap steal.

The criteria are simple. You look at the player's production and their overall salary cap hit for the 2020 regular season. This means players on their rookie deals certainly have an advantage, but it doesn't mean that is the only way for a player to find their way onto this list.
