The Pittsburgh Steelers have a new GM. Two, in fact. Omar Khan and Andy Weidl, hopefully the dynamic duo for the next decade beyond. Kevin Colbert’s officially no longer the team’s general manager, technically their first in team history. And I gotta admit, it is weird. Even with an internal hire, it’s a new and brave world we’re stepping into.
The benefit of having the same GM and head coach for 15+ years was, if you followed them closely enough (and you know we did) they became pretty predictable. How they approached free agency, who they drafted, what the roster construction looked like, there was an obvious structure to how the team operated.
