PITTSBURGH (AP) — r in Pittsburgh. Antonio Brown is an Oakland Raider. Le’Veon Bell is a New York Jet Sammy Watkins Jersey , and Ben Roethlisberger will be part of a roster that will be considerably younger in 2019 thanks to an influx of draft picks.The Steelers began free agency by completing a deal that sent Brown, a four-time All-Pro wide receiver, to Oakland in exchange for a third-round pick and a fifth-round pick in next month’s draft, a quiet end to more than two months of drama in which Brown made it publicly know he’d rather continue his career elsewhere than return to Pittsburgh in 2019.The Raiders sent the 66th and 141st overall selections to the Steelers for Brown.“We believe the compensation, which now gives us four picks in the first 83 selections and 10 overall in the upcoming draft, can benefit our efforts to improve our team in 2019 and beyond,” Pittsburgh general manager Kevin Colbert said in a statement. “Antonio remains one of the best players in the National Football League, but as we believe, this move was in the best interest of the Pittsburgh Steelers. We wish Antonio all the best in the rest of his career.”Brown’s departure leaves the Steelers thin at wide receiver. JuJu Smith-Schuster emerged as a full-blown star in 2018 — hauling in 111 passes for 1,426 yards and seven touchdowns while earning a spot in the Pro Bowl — but James Washington was only sporadically effective as a rookie.Bell Anthony Hitchens Jersey , who sat out last season after declining to sign his $14.5 franchise tender, agreed to a four-year deal with the New York Jets. James Conner made the Pro Bowl in Bell’s absence and Jaylen Samuels showed promise as a rookie. The Steelers will receive a compensatory selection for Bell in 2020.By then the mild rebuild the team is planning following the departure of their two stars should be well underway. The process began on the opening day of free agency when they shored up their uneven secondary by signing former Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Steven Nelson to a three-year deal worth $25.5 million.The Steelers entered the offseason prioritizing defensive players who could create takeaways after they produced just 15 turnovers in 2018. The 26-year-old Nelson had four interceptions with the Chiefs last season, matching the entire total of Pittsburgh’s secondary.Nelson will line up across from veteran Joe Haden, pushing former first-round pick Artie Burns into a reserve role and putting his long-term future with the team in doubt. Burns, Pittsburgh’s top selection in the 2016 draft, struggled to stay in the lineup last season.Kansas City selected the 5-foot-11, 194-pound Nelson in the third round of the 2015 draft. He played in 52 games, including 38 starts, across four seasons with the Chiefs.“I’m all smiles right now can’t be happier they got a straight worker,” Nelson tweeted shortly after agreeing to terms.Pittsburgh re-signed linebacker Anthony Chickillo to a two-year deal worth $8 million. Chickillo Mitchell Schwartz Jersey , a sixth-round pick in the 2015 draft, has seven career sacks and has carved a niche as a valuable contributor on special teams. The Steelers also re-signed punter Jordan Berry to a two-year deal. Berry averaged 43.7 yards per kick in 2018, right in line with his career average of 43.8.While Pittsburgh signed center Maurkice Pouncey and guard Ramon Foster to new deals last week, the Steelers sent right tackle Marcus Gilbert to Arizona in exchange for a sixth-round pick. Gilbert, a second-round choice in 2011, started 87 games for the Steelers, most of them at right tackle. He ran into injury trouble in each of the last two seasons and also missed four weeks for violating the league’s policy on performance enhancers.Gilbert played just five games in 2018 due to a lingering knee injury that sent him to injured reserve in December.The Steelers have some in-house options to replace Gilbert, including second-year lineman Chukwuma Okorafor, veteran Matt Feiler, and Jerald Hawkins Juan Thornhill Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys , a fourth-round pick in 2016 who has played in just five games, mostly because of injuries.

This is part of SB Nation’s FanPulse tool, which sends weekly questions to the city’s most plugged-in and dedicated Chiefs fans via email. If you are interested in joining the Chiefs’ FanPulse, please sign up here.This week, we asked Chiefs fans to weigh in on the team’s top need in the NFL Draft. The choices were defensive end, safety and cornerback.What is the Chiefs’ top need in the NFL Draft?This is no surprise, though I would personally lean toward the defensive end/EDGE position. The Chiefs have names such as Kendall Fuller, Bashaud Breeland, Charvarius Ward and Keith Reaser at cornerback Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys 2019 , whereas the Chiefs have Breeland Speaks, Tanoh Kpassagnon, Emmanuel Ogbah and Alex Okafor potentially at defensive end.From an experience and performance standpoint, the Chiefs seem stronger at cornerback.I’m also surprised that given the Chiefs’ starters at safety right now are Tyrann Mathieu and Daniel Sorensen (some of you will make a case for Jordan Lucas), more fans didn’t vote for safety.We also asked fans across the NFL a national question this week.Who is the best player in the 2019 NFL Draft?The Chiefs won’t sniff any of these players (we believe the highest they would ever trade up is No. 15 overall), but it is still interesting to see who fans across the league like the most.Like most draft analysts, fans believe Ohio State EDGE Nick Bosa is the best player in the 2019 NFL Draft. I don’t disagree.Arrowhead Pride podcastsSubscribe to Arrowhead Pride podcasts by clicking here.
