Players Who Just Felt Like Steelers

Ever watch someone on another team and think, he just seems like a Steeler”? Like how they played, tough, physical, no nonsense, just does his job and competes.

My personal ones that i could think of since watching the steelers:

90s: Zach Thomas, Hardy Nickerson, Mark Brunell, Curtis Martin.
2000s: Lances Briggs, Justin Smith, Mike Alstott
2010s: Luke Kuechly, Frank Gore
Current: not many players cross my mind, maybe Aiden Hutchinson.

 

Skattebo.. I wish the Steelers had drafted him

 

One that comes to my mind we finally got, but after he was older. Ramsey. I always felt like he belonged on the Steelers.

 

I'd go with Derick Henry

 

Dan Marino
Bo Jackson
Randy Moss

 

Bronko Nagursky.

 

Terry McLaurin. Steelers should trade for him if they don't draft a WR in '26.

Metcalf & McLaurin = badass WR corps

Let Commanders have CAIII, Wilson, Miller and Skowrenek

 

Josh Allen

 

Hardy Nickerson probably seems like that because he was a Steeler for 5 years

 

But, but, that is what you say about every cornerback.

 

Give me Trent McDuffie over Kenny Pickett every time.

 

McLaurin is over 30 and has been injured too much this season.

 

JSN

 

MVS

 

Hardy Nickerson was a Steeler at the biginning of his career!!

 

Whoops ,my bad , totally forgot about that since i started watching the Steelers in 93

 

Earl Campbell

 

I will likely get flamed for this one, but I kinda feel like Ochocinco would've been loved here if he was a Steeler. He's similar to AB in terms of craziness, but he was never a bad guy. Just flamboyant. He definitely would have fit in with the Tomlin Steelers crowd (AB, Bell, etc.)

Patrick Willis would've made a great Steeler, seems like a perfect fit. I think Sean Taylor too. Aaron Donald and Darrelle Revis obviously come to mind as well. The new version of Baker would go over super well here too (not the Cleveland commercial Baker, but the Tampa swagger Baker would).

 

See I always thought his counterpart was more in the Steelers vein. Houshmandzadeh. I totally agree with P. Willis.

 

WTMI & WTF.

 

here we go ---Dan Marino--Joe Montana---Jim Kelly-- Joe Namath--All would have made great hometown Steelers.-ANY GREAT STAR FROM PA ...would have made a great Steeler...The others Tom Brady and such.nope

 

Even thought a huge rival in the 70's I always thought Kenny Stabler would have been good in black and gold.

 

"If your phone doesn't ring, it's probably me"

That gave me a good laugh. I only know two songs by Jimmy. Is that from a song of his?????

 

I made a post in the draft room, before the draft, saying that Cam Skattebo represents everything the Steelers running game used to be.

If ever a young running back just felt and looked like a Steeler, it was him. Then the Steelers drafted Kaleb Johnson.
