The Pittsburgh Steelers still have hopes of making the playoffs this season but they need to make moves to ensure they’re in the postseason.
Sitting at 3-3, the Steelers are in a precarious position as they look for a playoff berth.
They’ve managed to rebound with two wins ahead of their bye week but that only drew them back to .500. They need something more to propel them forward.
That means being buyers at the trade deadline.
3 trades the Steelers need to make to get back in the playoff picture
Duron Harmon
Pittsburgh’s secondary has been one of the weakest units on the team this season. Among the struggles has been an inability to force turnovers.
So it’s time to add a ball-hawking defensive back to the mix.
Duron Harmon would be gettable from the Falcons with a versatile skill set to add to the secondary.
The Steelers should be well aware of what he can do. During his time with the Patriots, he had a habit of picking off Pittsburgh passes. He has five interceptions against the team in six games.
New blood in the secondary could make a huge difference, whether Harmon commands a starting job beside Minkah Fitzpatrick or serves as another body in the rotation.
