## Resource

The Steelers are all-in for a championship run, trading for Michael Pittman Jr. and signing Jamel Dean, but their first-round pick, Max Iheanachor, might not see the field right away. With a “win now” mindset, Pittsburgh needs immediate help at tackle, yet Iheanachor—only a rookie with less than five years of experience—is being treated as a long-term project. Coach Mike McCarthy, known for making players earn their spots, isn’t rushing him into the starting lineup. Instead, he’s embracing a rotating offensive line strategy to give Iheanachor valuable reps without overwhelming him. The Steelers are betting on patience and development, not panic, even as they chase the AFC North crown.
