Bleacher Report put out a list of every teams’ current weakness. I don’t think we have the best receiver corps in the league, but I can’t imagine this is the worst part of the team right now.

I don’t know how much this has changed in the last week but I’m pretty sure we were second last in separation in the league even with Pickens.
I think RB is worse but I don’t think they’re as valuable as WRs.
Disagree, as our biggest weakness, but it is a need.
What is this image lol
This graphic without context is so goofy lol
Our biggest weakness is the offensive line now but that’s due to injuries. Our receiver room is very weak and we need someone else here with GP.
It’s the offensive line. That’s it.
Aside from QB which is looking more and more to be a filled position I would agree WR is the Steelers current weakness (if we are talking about a healthy roster). With injuries I would say the oline and RB are currently bigger weaknesses.
We need another playmaker on offense. We could get a real RB, but once Warren/Patterson are healthy that problem largely goes away. So that means we need to go and find a WR.
How does the crowd feel about Roman Wilson coming into the lineup in the second half? It feels like he could be a nice change, but the longer he is a healthy scratch the more I feel like he won’t pan out
We need WRs who can consistently get open
i think oline is rapidly climbing the list given the lack of depth, and najees performance is concerning if warren and cpat are out, but assuming seumalo stays healthy WR is definitely the biggest weakness. these other weak position groups should be enough to get by and will improve as people get back off IR etc.
our WR2 is ranked in the bottom ~10 of ~120 wrs by almost every metric and the other guys not named george pickens aren’t doing much better. and this is with 0 injuries. sure you can count roman wilson as a guy set to come back but if he isn’t beating out scotty miller and van jefferson after 2 weeks of practice you can’t gamble on any upside being there. have to make a move for a quality 2 soon
Our biggest weakness is by far offensive line health
I need to see Roman Wilson play first.
You’re asking what we think of bleacher report?
I don’t think Tomlin would be a great receiver.
Call me crazy (I am) but Chase Claypool is only 26 and a FA
Make Najee a WR or TE instead of RB since Warren/Patterson are better lol
They’re just catering to the clicks of all of you idiots that won’t stop obsessing about our second wide receiver
I didn’t read the article but I’m dying laughing at the image of Tomlin just yelling “WIDE RECEIVER” to no one in particular.
Think coach is a bit too old to be playing WR.
I thought he was the head coach not a receiver
Our biggest weakness is far and away coaching. Our defensive scheme is trash, the team comes out stale as often as not, poor game management, Najee keeps getting carries, etc… After coaching it’s probably RB between the injuries and Najee running in slow motion. An upgrade at WR2 would be impactful but it’s pretty low on my list of problems currently.
Looking back at the play that Downs made to secure the Colts’ win on 3rd down, I don’t think there’s anyone on the Steelers (after Pickens) capable of it. And Downs is their 2nd/3rd best WR. It was kind of telling to see what a difference that position can make.
The O-Line is looking rough. Daniel’s is out for the season and who knows when Troy is coming back.
Little old to be playing wr still, but I heard he was alright in college.
Davante Adams
It’s absolutely our weak point. Currently it’s the Oline with 3 starters on IR
Well this very moment I’d call Oline our weakness, but yea WR is way up there. I’m not as down on Najee as everyone here is, and Warren and Patterson should be rotated in more for change ups, so I think RB is more a scheme to talent problem than just a talent problem.
This is absolutely the worst part of our team rn without factoring in injuries.
If you factor in injuries, it’s RB.
Looks like Mike Tomlin with a WR label for some reason
If you don’t count the OL injuries its 100% WR. Outside of Pickens it is a black void.
Agree. Van Jefferson sucks lmao. CA3 is promising but he needs to develop a little more. Roman Wilson is essentially our only hope at having a reliable second option next to Pickens.
No it’s definitely offensive line, then defensive backfield, then running back, then wide receiver.
