Steelers Caught Unprepared by Eagles Trade for Makai Lemon | Max Iheanachor Brings Athleticism to OL Apr 24, 2026

Show notes

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers selected Arizona State offensive tackle Max Iheanachor with their first round pick of the NFL Draft. But that only happened after the Philadelphia Eagles caught them woefully unprepared with their trade up to get USC receiver Makai Lemon. Christopher Carter gives his reaction to how poorly Omar Khan played the situation, where he thought the Steelers were getting their top target and instead got played by the Dallas Cowboys and the Eagles. How could the Steelers have better handled their first round? And could this be a huge mistake? Chris also breaks down the upside of drafting Iheanachor, an athletic offensive tackle who could have a bright future in the NFL. But where will he fit on the Steelers' offensive line? Will he replace Broderick Jones at left tackle even though Iheanachor was exclusively a right tackle? Will he be the final piece to complete the Steelers' offensive line of the future? And who are the top players left for the Steelers to target in the second and third rounds?

Steelers Draft Gamble: Go All-In for Elite Prospect like Caleb Downs or Preserve Picks, Stack Talent Apr 22, 2026

Show notes

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Nick Farabaugh of PennLive.com.

The Pittsburgh Steelers can make a big trade for an elite prospect or hold onto their picks for premium options, but they can't do both. Which is the best move? Christopher Carter and Nick Farabaugh weigh on the decision that faces Omar Khan and Andy Weidl. Should the team go all-in for top prospects like Caleb Downs or Makai Lemon? Or should they hold onto their picks and stack premium prospects like Omar Cooper Jr. and Treydan Stukes? Also could defensive back be the position with sneaky day two value? Players like Keionte Scott, A.J. Haulcy, D'Angelo Ponds and Stukes could make the position too good to pass up in the second and third rounds. Could that be better value than second round receivers like Germie Bernard and Zachariah Branch? And how long can the Steelers afford to wait to draft a guard like Keylan Rutledge or Chase Bisontis.

Can Steelers Wait for Omar Cooper Jr. Without Trading Up? | 1st Round Mock Draft 2.0 | Keep the 3-4? Apr 21, 2026

Show notes

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com.

The Pittsburgh Steelers need a top receiver in the NFL Draft, but can they afford to wait to see if Omar Cooper Jr. or K.C. Concepcion fall to them? Christopher Carter and Alan Saunders go over Chris' full first round mock draft, and look at where the Steelers could decide to trade up to make sure they get their preferred first round pick? Do the Steelers need to trade up to get ahead of the Ravens? How expensive would a trade be to get Makai Lemon, Jordyn Tyson, Olaivavega Ioane, or Caleb Downs? Also, Chris and Alan discuss the recent comments from Mike McCarthy and Omar Khan on their draft plans. Will the Steelers actually look to use all 12 draft picks? And did Broderick Jones actually suffer a setback in his recovery? Could offensive tackle be a bigger concern in the Steelers' draft plans? And defensive coordinator made comments on the Steelers' plans to keep their 3-4 defense. But is that the right move?

Steelers' Secret NFL Draft Plan to Snag Playmaker DB? | Dexter Lawrence Trade Hurts Top WR Chances? Apr 20, 2026

Show notes

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Mike DeFabo of the Athletic.

The Pittsburgh Steelers made it clear their top pre-draft research was into wide receivers and offensive linemen. But could their plan for an early pick be a secret plan to get a playmaker defensive back? Christopher Carter and Mike DeFabo discuss what defensive coordinator Patrick Graham said about Jalen Ramsey last week, and why that might be a clue to the type of defensive back the Steelers really want. But could it be a top safety like Caleb Downs, Dillon Thieneman, or Emmanuel McNeil-Warren? Or a top cornerback like Colton Hood, Jermod McCoy or Keionte Scott? Also, Chris and Mike discuss the recent trade where the New York Giants sent defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence to the Cincinnati Bengals for the tenth overall pick in the NFL Draft. Did the move make the Bengals a more dangerous team in the AFC North? And why could that move hurt the Steelers' chances to draft a top receiver like Carnell Tate, Jordyn Tyson or Makai Lemon? Finally, it's the last Mock Draft Monday of the season. Who won?

Steelers' Trade-Up Market | Omar Khan Ready to Move for Caleb Downs, Makai Lemon, or Jordyn Tyson? Apr 17, 2026

Show notes

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are steadily in the trade-up market for the NFL Draft. But how aggressive will Omar Khan be to get a blue chip player? Christopher Carter goes over the different options for the Steelers to make a big move in the first round, whether it be for Ohio State safety Caleb Downs, USC receiver Makai Lemon, Penn State guard Olaivavega Ioane, or Arizona State receiver Jordyn Tyson. But how much will such a move cost the Steelers? And would it be worth it? Would the Steelers be able to trade up with the Dolphins at the 11th overall pick or the Chiefs at the 9th overall pick? Chris takes your questions on the Locked on Steelers call-in line, including the potential for using T.J. Watt as trade bait for future 2027 draft picks to help find a franchise quarterback, and whether the Steelers can form a trio of dangerous receivers with this draft class that's worthy of the nickname, Weapons of Pass Destruction.

Steelers' Top 10 Pre-Draft Visit Prospects | Trade Up Plan for Makai Lemon or Olaivavega Ioane? Apr 16, 2026

Show notes

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers completed their full list of pre-draft visitors this week, so Christopher Carter ranks the best of them. Who are his top 10 pre-draft visitor prospects the Steelers looked closely at? Makai Lemon, Olaivavega Ioane and Spencer Fano are among the top prospects, but did Omar Khan, Mike McCarthy and Andy Weidl tip their hand as far as their first round targets? Or were these moves part of a ruse to disguise their true intentions? Also, Chris answers questions on the Locked on Steelers call-in line from fans of the show. What's the true purpose behind the Steelers' usage of the pre-draft visitor process? Could Ioane and KC Concepcion be the plan for the first two rounds? And why are there so many bad quarterback classes? Could there be new trends that are making it harder to find franchise quarterbacks?
