On the Friday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Christopher Carter and Brian Batko analyze the team's numerous trades to send former top draft picks away in recent years. Including the deals that have sent George Pickens and Kenny Pickett elsewhere the past two years.

Were Pickens, Pickett and others including Chase Claypool and Diontae Johnson bad NFL draft picks? Or did GM Omar Khan do well to move them in exchange for premium draft capital to build the team's future? Our duo tackles those questions, then previews rookie minicamp for incoming prospects including Derrick Harmon, Kaleb Johnson, Jack Sawyer, Yahya Black, Will Howard, Carson Bruener and Donte Kent.

Then in the third segment, Chris welcomes undrafted free agent DJ Thomas-Jones to discuss his bid to make the team as a fullback out of South Alabama.
