Don’t Hate the Player, Hate the Draft Pick | Steelers Morning Rush

Steelers Morning Rush: Don't hate players like Terrell Edmunds and Najee Harris just because the Steelers over-paid for them.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it’s separating a poor acquisition from a poor player, like in the case of former Steelers first-round draft pick Terrell Edmunds.

Edmunds is back in Pittsburgh after a one-year hiatus, and that has some fans lamenting the return of the 2018 first-round draft picks, but they shouldn’t.

Edmunds was a quality player for the Black and Gold, even though he never lived up to his draft status, similarly to Najee Harris. Alan thinks some fans have a hard time separating those two things.
