Schobert came to the Steelers and was supposed to be the coverage linebacker and tackling machine Pittsburgh was lacking. Devin Bush was stuggling after coming off of a torn ACL and Schobert should have been the answer on the inside.

Pittsburgh replaced Schobert with Myles Jack in free agency and he appears to be a massive upgrade.
