In an ESPN article regarding big trades to be made during the NFL offseason, DK Metcalf was ranked 6th – ahead of guys like Tua Tagovailoa and Kyler Murray. The Steelers are free of a dead cap hit with Metcalf due to the incident that took place during the Lions’ game late in the season. Chris is OK with making a trade, even though it would leave them with 0 notable WRs. What if a team offers a 1st round pick? The conversation took a turn to best bands to come out of Western PA. The Bills, Commanders and Patriots were listed as landing spots for DK Metcalf in the article from ESPN stating that he is on the trade block. There’s a weird piece of gym behavior in the work gym down the hill from us. More on the best bands in Western PA debate. Donny Football Debrief – A few Ravens players have sounded off after the NFL admitted to missing some big calls in their loss to the Steelers in Week 14.

The big breaking news of the day is Sidney Crosby being out for ‘at least’ 4 weeks after the lower-body injury suffered last week in the Olympics. Does this ruin the Penguins’ season? Historically, Evgeni Malkin has stepped up big when Crosby has been absent, but can he do that at 39? One of our biggest fans, and a massive Penguins fan, told us he was ‘spiraling’ with this news. For as fun as this season has been and as fun as the US winning a gold medal was – was it all worth it? The guys don’t think we should just accept the fact that the Olympics could very well cost the Penguins a playoff spot. Was Sidney Crosby really that close to playing in the Gold Medal game? Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. TK reacted to the news of Sidney Crosby being out for ‘at least’ a month as the Penguins pursue a playoff spot. Tyler expects Evgeni Malkin to step up, even at 39-years-old, like he has done in the past without Sid. He thinks Kyle Dubas will be aggressive as the trade deadline approaches. Dubas m

93.7 The Fan Sports Director Jeff Hathhorn joined the show. Jeff gave the layout from the NFL Combine in Indianapolis. He said the radio row area has become very impressive. Jeff talked about the trip to the Pacers game last night which led to an embarrassing Kaboly moment. Is it due diligence or more than that with Caleb Downs? Jeff isn’t sure if it will be possible for the Steelers to move up far enough to draft him. Jeff said the Steelers need to listen to everything put on their table, including an offer for DK Metcalf. We noticed that 2 former Steelers hosting a podcast put out some very questionable free agents on their wish lists. Jeff talked about the layer of deception with the Steelers around the draft.

ALL ACCESS w/ Aditi – Aditi ran through some NFL coaching trivia before the guys asked her some NFL Combine question. Aditi weighed in on the Steelers meeting with Caleb Downs even though he’s a top 5-10 pick. What other scuttlebutt is going on in Indy? Aditi has her doubts that Aaron Rodgers has his mind made up yet on returning to the NFL or the Steelers. Aditi thinks the Steelers need a plan at QB and can’t keep treading water.

The Steelers plan to meet with Caleb Downs at the NFL Combine. He is a consensus Top 10 player in this year’s class. So, why are the Steelers wasting their time here? There is a chance he’s the highest drafted safety in decades – with Mel Kiper having him 2nd overall in his latest mock draft. With how devalued the safety position has been, is it worth it for the Steelers to jump up to get a top tier player?

Dubas made another trade TK liked yesterday, moving on from one defenseman to acquire another. Tyler said it’s very good that Geno got this time off because he’s at the age where that is necessary in the middle of the season. Tyler admitted he would give Jack Hughes a standing ovation tomorrow night if he was at the game. TK told us a wild story about an injury he suffered off-the-ice during his career that he had to slyly lie about.

Khan’s Quotes – What else did Omar Khan say to the media earlier today? Former MLB pitcher Matt Clement joined the show. Matt said things have officially gotten interesting with how the Pirates will handle Konnor Griffin after 2 long home runs today against MLB caliber pitching.

Last season it was Shedeur Sanders that got the love from Mel Kiper Jr going into the draft. This year’s name appears to be Ty Simpson and Kiper, yet again, has the Steelers connected to the QB.

How do fans feel about Ty Simpson? We ranked Simpson against Will Howard and Drew Allar. Donny Football Debrief – Some of the new UFL rules are interesting. Will any ever get picked up by the NFL?

The answer we got today from Omar Khan about Broderick Jones has us worried about his football future. Is there any faith in Dylan Cook?

Do we think Khan wants Aaron Rodgers back the same way the coach wants? The guys believe Khan actually wants Will Howard to start and push to the future, but the coach and owner could be holding that back. Poni has his doubts we find many people that will be calling in defense of the older QB. Would Aaron Rodgers consider any other team besides the Steelers? Would any other team, besides the Steelers, consider him? Sports Court w/ our friends from Edgar Snyder & Associates. With Konnor Griffin mashing the baseball today, the guys asked if any prospect in baseball could make a legal push to be on a big-league roster earlier than they should? After Sidney Crosby was hurt in the Olympics, what legal standing is there when it comes to pro players taking part in international competition? Rob told us baseball and hockey are different, and that each pla
