The Steelers are at a crossroads. Future Hall of Fame WR Antonio Brown has been shipped off. Le'Veon Bell may one day see his bust in Canton. He's a New York Jet.
Steelers GM Kevin Colbert is charged with getting the most out of Ben Roethlisberger's final years in the NFL. It starts with the 2019 NFL Draft. I believe he's got what it takes to make the most of this window.
Colbert, like the entire Steelers brass, has endured criticism over the last few years. According to most, this team has underachieved. Well, you can't underachieve without great talent.
Colbert has brought in great talent. Casey Hampton, Troy Polamalu, Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown, Le'Veon Bell, David DeCastro, Maurkice Pouncey are all hall of fame caliber players.
Colbert's teams have only suffered 4 non-winning seasons since he took over in the year 2000. His Steelers have only had one losing season on his watch (2003). Colbert also has a pair of Super Bowl rings.
It's a pivotal time for this franchise and I think Kevin Colbert is just the man to get the ship on course.
