What Are the Steelers Top Linebacker Fits in Free Agency?

The Pittsburgh Steelers are just days away from the official start of free agency and have been clearing cap space to give them more room to operate. There are a glaring needs at certain positions and the free agency pool certainly offers some potential solutions for them.

With recent moves taken into affect, Pittsburgh currently has around $16M to work with at the moment.
