A 20+ year veteran of the Pittsburgh Steelers' front office, Omar Khan acted quickly when Kenny Pickett - his predecessor's first-round QB choice - proved incapable of above-average play. Khan traded Pickett to the Philadelphia Eagles while signing starter Russell Wilson and trading for upside backup Justin Fields. It was a creative solution for a unique Pittsburgh problem.
Khan used the past two drafts to give the Steelers' offense a punishing identity, adding three offensive line starters in Broderick Jones, Troy Fautanu, and Zach Frazier.
Khan has pursued upgrades at inside linebacker by signing Elandon Roberts, Cole Holcomb, and Kwon Alexander before last season while signing Patrick Queen and drafting Payton Wilson this year.
