6 perfect Christmas gifts for the Steelers this offseason

Merry Christmas everyone! Pittsburgh Steelers fans everyone are waking up on Christmas morning with the thoughts of the blowout win over the Cincinnati Bengals dancing in their heads. While all of you are opening those Steelers socks or yet another Terrible Towel, enjoy these six perfect offseason presents for the Steelers.

Free agent safety Antoine Winfield Jr.

There’s no defensive free agent who would have a bigger impact than Winfield. Pair him up with Minkah Fitzpatrick and the Steelers defense takes a huge leap forward.

Whether it is the first or second round, we hope the Steelers unwrap one of the half dozen top quarterback prospects in the 2024 NFL draft.

A shiny new offensive coordinator

Like the hottest piece of tech on the market, the Steelers need to get some innovation on the coaching staff as well with an offensive coordinator who can push this offense forward to keep up with the rest of the NFL.

A big, nasty rookie center

This draft is stacked with mid-round centers who play with an edge and physicality that Mason Cole cannot match. Whether it’s Zach Frazier, Jackson Powers-Johnson or one of the others, Pittsburgh needs to add some nasty to the middle of the offensive line.

Full bill of health for Kwon Alexander and Cole Holcomb

Instead of trying over again, we just want to see a full season of Kwon Alexander and Cole Holcomb healthy and the inside linebacker position might be set.

Relaxing bath bombs for everyone

This applies a little extra to the wide receivers. This whole team has played far too uptight this season, so let’s stuff their stockings with some relaxing bath bombs so they can all just unwind a little and loosen up.
