Anyone who’s followed the Steelers for a long should have a pretty good sense of how they do business by now. They spend to the cap ceiling nearly every season, and they aren’t going to be that team that goes out and lands the most high-profile free agents.
Instead, Kevin Colbert and the Rooney family prefer to continue doing business the way they have done if for years: Draft well and make sure their own players get paid. This philosophy has paid dividends for them in the past, but some missed picks on players like Jarvis Jones, Artie Burns, and Senquez Golson make this strategy less than ideal as of late.
