Re-signing Moats was a key part of the offseason plan. Moats was a solid contributor last season. Over the course of the 337 snaps he saw on defense, he had 4 sacks and 2 forced fumbles. While he contributed on both sides at outside linebacker, he was also a productive special teamer. While the Steelers still need to lock down the OLB position, this takes takes some of the pressure off.
