Acquiring talent is just one half of the equation in building a successful team. The NFL Draft is the main way to do that, but even the most talented of young players need the right situation to thrive and reach their full potential. Through two years of Broderick Jones’ career, a strong argument can be made that the Steelers have not given him that.
One former NFL player would take it a step further and say the Steelers have actively been hindering his progress.
“The Steelers did a disservice to Broderick Jones a lot of these years by flip-flopping him back and forth,” former NFL DL Leger Douzable said via NFL on CBS’s YouTube.
