The vast majority of notable free agent moves have wrapped up for the Pittsburgh Steelers. From Jamel Dean to Rico Dowdle coming in, this team has received a small facelift in 2026.<\/p>\n

While the big moves should be done, the team would be wise to add a few depth players on the cheap.<\/p>\n
Even with a surplus of draft picks, adding players on veteran minimum or near minimum deals is never a bad idea. Experienced depth on the cheap is vital to the success of a team.<\/p>\n
These three remaining free agents would go a long way in shoring up this roster. Adding them to compete for a roster spot would be wise.<\/p>\n
The Pittsburgh Steelers can scoop up these three players on the cheap<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n D\u2019Wayne Eskridge, WR, Miami Dolphins<\/strong><\/p>\n While listed as a receiver, D\u2019Wayne Eskridge should really be classified as a returner. He has 228 career receiving yards and never panned out as anything more than a gadget option in the passing game.<\/p>\n While not elite, Eskridge can serve as a solid kick returner. While less experienced there, he could also figure into the punt return competition as well.<\/p>\n While adding an offensive player with limited value outside of returns isn\u2019t ideal, he would cost very little and could be cut if a better returner materializes. At a minimum, he gives this team an option on special teams.<\/p>\n Anthony Firsker, TE, Detroit Lions<\/strong><\/p>\n While the Steelers have a great tandem at tight end, the depth behind them is thin. It feels like the draft will see a mid-round guy be added to the room. That shouldn\u2019t stop them from signing Anthony Firsker, though, for the minimum.<\/p>\n While undersized as a traditional tight end, he slots in as a fullback hybrid who can block and work in space. While his most productive days are behind him, he can slot in as a third tight end, throw a block, and play on special teams.<\/p>\n The Steelers don\u2019t have that on the roster, and assuming he signs for cheap, there is no risk in a deal like this. He can wear a lot of hats for this offense.<\/p>\n Kelvin Beachum, OT, Arizona Cardinals<\/strong><\/p>\n I\u2019ll reignite my yearly plea for the Steelers to reunite with Kelvin Beachum. It feels right that he started his career here, defied the odds, and could now end his career where it all began.<\/p>\n While Beachum isn\u2019t a great player anymore, he is serviceable as a depth player and can play either side at tackle. With so many questions surrounding what happens at left tackle this year, having a capable veteran presence is a must.<\/p>\n Beachum can compete for starting snaps while also mentoring a potential rookie. It feels like his deal won\u2019t top $2 million, so there is no downside to reuniting with their former starting left tackle.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The vast majority of notable free agent moves have wrapped up for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
