PITTSBURGH -- Beginning Monday, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the NFL's other 31 franchises will descend on Indianapolis for a week of evaluating the best prospects of the 2024 draft class at the NFL scouting combine -- and maybe take a break for shrimp cocktail at St. Elmo's.
Coach Mike Tomlin and general manager Omar Khan will arrive at the combine in a frustratingly familiar place: a tenuous situation at quarterback, an offensive line that needs to be upgraded and a secondary that could use some depth. The Steelers already got a head start on scouting this year's top prospects at the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama, paying particular attention to the offensive linemen in attendance, and they'll pick up where they left off when they arrive in Indianapolis -- along with adding a couple of other items to their to-do list.
