April 10, 2026 - Season 16, Episode 118 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning show, which was recorded late Thursday night, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing the recent pre-draft visitors that the team hosted. That means that we fully discuss three draft prospects in WR Makai Lemon, S Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, and TE Marlin Klein. Alex and I also go over the 16 prospects that are scheduled to attend the 2026 NFL Draft in Pittsburgh in two weeks. After going over that list of players, we note a few interesting things concerning a few of those players along with the positions represented. After the pre-draft visitor and draft attendee discussions, Alex and I discuss the recent post I wrote concerning the plausibility of the Steelers trading up in the first round with the Dallas Cowboys. We go over whether the Steelers could, should or would trade ILB Patrick Queen to the Cowboys to move up to 12th overall in the first round to select either OG Olaivavega Ioane or possibly even Lemon. We discuss what might need to happen in the first 11 picks of the 2026 NFL Draft before the Cowboys might consider trading out of the 12th over position and how conversations with the Steelers, and possibly even Queen, would likely need to happen before the first round gets underway. We also discuss why the Steelers might be open to trading Queen and why they also might not be interested in dealing him. Later in the show, Alex discusses his thoughts on the Steelers possibly trading down in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft with the Buffalo Bills. This 99-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above and we end this show by answering several email questions we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

April 9 – Ep. 97: For today's episode, Joe Clark and Ross McCorkle begin by listing off several new pre-draft visitors including some first-round prospects finally coming to Pittsburgh, and what that might hint at. Next, we talk talk about the beginning of Phase One of the offseason training program, and how many players showed up for the voluntary workouts. We then discuss Broderick Jones, who was shown working out with the team after a scary neck injury last year, and what that could mean for the Steelers' draft plans. We wrap up the show with a listener question about draft trades and the possibility of making all 12 picks.

April 8, 2026 - Season 16, Episode 117 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing the Pittsburgh Steelers starting phase one of their offseason program on Tuesday and how it seems like the team has strong attendance when it comes to their veteran players. We go over several players who we spotted in pictures on Tuesday. The Steelers continue to bring in pre-draft visitors this week and so Alex and I go over the six players that have visited Pittsburgh through Wednesday morning. That list of players includes WR Denzel Boston, DL Darrell Jackson Jr., LB Jaden Dugger, WR Skyler Bell, S Jakobe Thomas, and LB Jack Kelly. We also discuss how the team has yet to bring in more sure-fire first-round prospects as of Wednesday. On the heels of Peter Schrager of ESPN releasing his first mock draft of 2026 on Tuesday, Alex and I discuss his curious selection of EDGE T.J. Parker at 21st overall. We both explain how we don't see the Steelers selecting an edge rusher until at least day-three of the draft. Dane Brugler of The Athletic released his annual draft guide on Wednesday morning so Alex and I start clawing our way through that large publication. We go over players ranked in Brugler's top 30 that could potentially be the Steelers first-round selection this year. We also give more thought to Pittsburgh potentially drafting a tackle in the first round this year. Are the Baltimore Ravens destined to select OG Olaivavega Ioane with their first-round pick this year? Alex and I go over Baltimore's biggest positional needs ahead of this year's draft and how guard or wide receiver seem to be high.
