The Steelers made a shift at quarterback partway through 2022, opting to start rookie Kenny Pickett. There was an adjustment period, but Pittsburgh found success with Pickett, and rookie wide receiver George Pickens made a splash on offense. They struggled early but somehow worked their way into the playoff picture heading into Week 18
After a successful 2022 draft, the Steelers have a solid base on which to build. They'll be looking to fill out their defense at linebacker, defensive tackle, and cornerback, though their biggest need rests in strengthening the offensive line.
