## Resource

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers. On today's episode, we talk about the recent ESPN article diving into the issues with the Rooney Rule as it currently stands and how nobody on any side is happy with the way things are going with it. We also dive into Drew Allar remaining unsigned and if that could change with Carson Beck signing, if Jordan Whitehead could make sense to help fill this team's FS void and if Broderick Jones or Dylan Cook could be a trade candidate given the Carolina Panthers tackle situation. Let's go for another Steelers Afternoon Drive and discuss all this and much more!
