Despite signing a trio of veterans in cornerbacks Darius Slay and Brandin Echols, and safety Juan Thornhill, pairing that trio with some key pieces on the roster like safeties Minkah Fitzpatrick and DeShon Elliott, and cornerback Joey Porter Jr. to strength the secondary, longtime Steelers’ beat writer Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is a bit down on the position group as a whole.
Appearing on the 590 AM and 101.1 FM WMBS radio show with George Von Benko Saturday morning, Fittipaldo stated that he doesn’t believe the Steelers did enough to address a position of need, despite the three offseason additions, as well as a draft pick and a new secondary coach.
