The Pittsburgh Steelers swung for the fences this offseason when they traded away Minkah Fitzpatrick for Jalen Ramsey and Jonnu Smith. Ramsey was the centerpiece of the trade, as both teams were flipping former elite defenders coming off some mediocre stretches.
While both players are capable of rebounding and returning to their elite form, I would argue that Ramsey is the better player currently. That said, his traditional role as an outside cornerback seems to be at risk.
It looks like the Steelers want to use him in multiple roles.
That will work for this reason, and we should be excited to see how Ramsey does in this new role.
