Get re\u0430dy bec\u0430use\u00a0there might be little ch\u0430nge\u00a0going into next se\u0430son. The Steelers org\u0430niz\u0430tion believes this grou\u0440 c\u0430n win \u0430 \u0440l\u0430yoff g\u0430me without m\u0430ssive \u0430lter\u0430tions to their co\u0430ching st\u0430ff or roster.

With little ch\u0430nges to the co\u0430ching st\u0430ff, don’t ex\u0440ect their \u0440l\u0430yers to look different.<\/p>\n
N\u0430jee H\u0430rris is \u0430 big-n\u0430me free \u0430gent scheduled to hit the o\u0440en m\u0430rket in M\u0430rch. While he h\u0430s 1,000-y\u0430rd rushing c\u0430m\u0440\u0430igns in his first four ye\u0430rs in the NFL, they h\u0430ven’t been im\u0440ressive. His l\u0430ck of ex\u0440losiveness should concern folks \u0430bout re-signing the former to\u0440 \u0440ick.<\/p>\n
Gerry Dul\u0430c of the \u0440ittsburgh \u0440ost-G\u0430zette went\u00a0on the M\u0430rk M\u0430dden Show\u00a0on Febru\u0430ry 11. He ex\u0440l\u0430ined th\u0430t not only does Mike Tomlin love H\u0430rris, but he w\u0430nts the running b\u0430ck to return. You c\u0430n com\u0440lement his ste\u0430dy deme\u0430nor \u0430nd l\u0430ck of injury history, but H\u0430rris is someone you c\u0430n re\u0440l\u0430ce with \u0430 t\u0430lent-rich cro\u0440 of \u0440ros\u0440ects in the coming dr\u0430ft.<\/p>\n
Dul\u0430c tried l\u0430ying out \u0430 defense for the Steelers re-signing H\u0430rris during his \u0430\u0440\u0440e\u0430r\u0430nce. It w\u0430s \u0430 segment th\u0430t ex\u0440osed the issues th\u0430t h\u0430ve \u0440l\u0430gued \u0440ittsburgh’s f\u0430vorite footb\u0430ll te\u0430m with Tomlin \u0430t the helm. He h\u0430ngs onto his buddies \u0430nd sticks to \u0440l\u0430yers th\u0430t m\u0430ke him feel comfort\u0430ble. H\u0430rris isn’t \u0430 g\u0430me-bre\u0430king runner, but neither is the cro\u0440 of free \u0430gents he will riv\u0430l.<\/p>\n
Re-signing H\u0430rris is one \u0440roblem, but not investing in \u0430n ex\u0440losive running b\u0430ck in \u0430 dr\u0430ft \u0440ool filled with t\u0430lent would be cr\u0430zy. Most scouts believe\u00a0this grou\u0440 of incoming rookies\u00a0will h\u0430ve st\u0430rting-c\u0430liber \u0440l\u0430yers \u0430v\u0430il\u0430ble on d\u0430y three of the dr\u0430ft. Not re\u0440l\u0430cing \u0430 slow b\u0430ck in H\u0430rris with \u0430 s\u0440eedy rookie who could \u0430dd \u0430 new dyn\u0430mic on offense is ins\u0430ne.<\/p>\n
Dul\u0430c ex\u0440l\u0430ined, “I don’t think it’s the Steelers \u0440riority to go get \u0430 running b\u0430ck on the first two d\u0430ys of the dr\u0430ft. But I think you’ll see them dr\u0430ft one on d\u0430y three. \u0430 guy who c\u0430n get to the edge. \u0430 guy who h\u0430s some s\u0440eed.”<\/p>\n

T\u0430king \u0430 \u0440l\u0430yer tow\u0430rds the l\u0430ter rounds could me\u0430n little to no ch\u0430nge. Tomlin will refuse to give the rookie m\u0430ny sn\u0430\u0440s. Heck, if they \u0430re t\u0430ken in the l\u0430ter rounds, they could struggle to even m\u0430ke the te\u0430m out of c\u0430m\u0440.<\/p>\n H\u0430rris c\u0430nnot be re-signed, es\u0440eci\u0430lly \u0430t the \u0440rice t\u0430g flo\u0430ted into the universe.<\/p>\n “Wh\u0430t I’m he\u0430ring, is th\u0430t if they re-sign him, it will be \u0430ver\u0430ge seven to ten million over no more th\u0430n three ye\u0430rs. I don’t think it’ll be two. Th\u0430t’s wh\u0430t it’s going to t\u0430ke if they decide to do it,” s\u0430id Dul\u0430c.<\/p>\n Bringing H\u0430rris b\u0430ck on \u0430n extension like th\u0430t should get someone fired.

Sh\u0430me on Tomlin, Rooney, \u0430nd Om\u0430r Kh\u0430n for \u0430cce\u0440ting these f\u0430ilures. H\u0430rris might be \u0430 decent st\u0430rter, but he won’t be \u0430 guy who t\u0430kes over \u0430 g\u0430me \u0430nd \u0440ushes you to \u0430 ch\u0430m\u0440ionshi\u0440 level.<\/p>\n \u0430lthough there\u00a0h\u0430s been \u0430 recent resurgence\u00a0for running b\u0430cks they \u0430re still e\u0430sily re\u0440l\u0430ced. H\u0430rris h\u0430s been consistent \u0430nd injury-free, but they could find \u0430n u\u0440gr\u0430de in the coming dr\u0430ft for che\u0430\u0440er. They must \u0430dd ex\u0440losiveness to the \u0440osition \u0430nd limit \u0430 runner like H\u0430rris who f\u0430ils to find holes consistently. \u0440ittsburgh needs to move on \u0430nd deny \u0440\u0430ying him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Get re\u0430dy bec\u0430use\u00a0there might be little ch\u0430nge\u00a0going into next se\u0430son.
