    The defense has one good corner. Problems in the secondary are one reason the defense fell apart. Mitchell is already outstanding. This is a passing league, so having a pair of stud cornerbacks is incredibly valuable.

    Injury concerns were reportedly why Fautanu fell in the draft. Then he got hurt again.

    Yeah, it was a mistake.

    Williams probably deserved more snaps but he's not a #2 WR anymore.

    I have posted this many times but if the top CB in the draft falls to you draft him, this never happens for the Steelers that's why they should've drafted Mitchell.

    You should know that football games are won in the trenches. You can win football games with a shoddy secondary but much harder to do with no offensive line. The oline was a much bigger factor to losing than 1 CB so no, not a mistake.

    I remember Kozora saying something about Williams just not being that good anymore, and those guys watch the All-22.

    I'm not saying Jefferson is a #2 WR, but fans were expecting too much from that Williams trade he's not the same guy from his Chargers days.

    Wasn't Tomlin. It was Smith who liked Jefferson, brought him from Atlanta because he could block in Smith's scheme.
