The Official Steelers Training Camp Thread 2026 the new era begins

Yeah, nobody’s like: “meh, I preferred the old guy.”

I think the last person to say something like that at camp was Alan Faneca about Ben

 

Yes he is. We will save 4.75M in cap space once we cut this X-rat.

 

Savage time with the Steelers went something like this

 

I have been hearing from camp that Allar struggles on some of the short passes, but he looks good throwing it down the field.

 

Now we are posting clickbait on X from “Joe”

 

Expect those growing pains on short passes to continue. Drew's footwork, base, hip torque and release speed have all gotten improvement since OTAs. It is clear that Tom Arth and Mike McCarthy's methods are working.


As for if he can ever be consistent on the layup throws?! Time will tell on that one. More reps are needed.

 

Biggest camp surprise has to be Daylen Everette for me personally. I knew he had the potential to be a starting CB but his overall fundamentals were lacking; namely in his hand placement upon playing press. Doesn't seem to have nearly as many of those issues now.


Biggest improvement is easily his understanding of leverage in Off Man Coverage. He was suspect there coming out of Georgia. He has gotten better there.

 

In his defense, Allar has been reported to be much better in Training Camp than when he started out in OTAs. By no means a finished product but the progression is on the upswing for certain.

 

?!


Max's footwork was among the best in the entire class. That wasn't Max's problem. His lack of displacement in the running game along with his inconsistency in his strikes during pass pro sets were.


That said, footwork is a foundational element of what it takes to be an NFL Starting OT. If you have that, the rest is definitely worth coaching up; doubly so in Max's case.


He is listed as 325lbs currently. He played moving like that at 330lbs during the season at Arizona State. Dude's lateral movement is pretty damn special indeed.

 

I would hope Muth has the big year. God knows he needs it. Dude is like a damn Corvette Z06 that keeps getting put in Comfort Mode.


His ass needs to be put in Sport Plus.

 

The Smith bros are gone Muth should have a big year
