Pittsburgh Steelers 2008 NFL Draft and
Free Agency Team Needs
The top needs for the Steelers to fill
in the upcoming draft and free agency.
Offensive line: The performance of the line slipped
for the second consecutive year and now they will have lost perennial Pro
Bowler Alan Faneca and although they used the transition tag on Max Starks,
they are getting really thin all along the line at this point.
Wide receiver: At 32, Hines Ward is still going
strong, but they'll look to groom a replacement. They'd like either a tall
receiver or a fast one who also can return punts and/or kickoffs
Cornerback — With Ike Taylor,
Deshea Townsend, and Bryant McFadden on the roster, this isn't a huge need,
but another reliable corner for depth would be helpful, and this could also
be where the kick returner comes from.
