The Pittsburgh Steelers are facing a troubling decline, as former players openly express their desire to escape the franchise. Recent comments from Najee Harris and Mike Williams highlight the lack of trust players have in the organization. This sentiment isn't new; former players like Jesse James and Morgan Burnett have shared similar feelings about leaving Pittsburgh. The team's commitment to mediocrity has overshadowed its once-storied legacy of excellence.

Issues with player management have also been highlighted, notably the case of Melvin Ingram, who felt misled about his role. The trend of players leaving, including Justin Fields' departure to the New York Jets, only reinforces the idea that the Steelers need to reclaim their championship mentality to attract talent.

The NFL free agency period has seen several significant player movements that could drastically impact fantasy football leagues. While the high-profile signings tend to garner the most attention, the quieter signings often yield the most surprise performances. Fantasy managers are advised to keep an eye on these potentially undervalued players as sleepers for the 2025 season.

Joshua Palmer, now with the Buffalo Bills, is expected to thrive under Josh Allen's guidance. His ability to create separation against man coverage makes him a valuable WR3 option. Evan Engram's move to the Denver Broncos could revitalize his career, especially in a system that prioritizes tight ends. Meanwhile, Justin Fields' shift to the New York Jets enhances his appeal as a QB1, despite his past struggles as a passer. Dyami Brown, joining the Jacksonville Jaguars, is also a name to watch, particularly if the team utilizes him effectively in the offense. Lastly, Najee Harris's transition to the Los Angeles Chargers presents an opportunity for a breakout season, especially with a potential offensive line upgrade.

The New York Jets are making significant moves in the NFL free agency, highlighted by the signing of center Josh Myers, who reunites with former Ohio State teammates, Justin Fields and Garrett Wilson. Myers, a former Green Bay Packers second-round pick, brings four seasons of starting experience to a Jets offensive line that also features promising center Joe Tippmann. The Jets secured Myers on a one-year, $3.5 million deal, indicating their commitment to bolster the offensive front. However, the competition between Myers and Tippmann for the starting center position could lead to strategic shifts along the offensive line during the upcoming season.

Myers has shown solid performance in his previous seasons, although his Pro Football Focus grade of 55.3 in 2023 indicates room for improvement. Meanwhile, Tippmann, graded as the eighth-best center with a score of 73.4, could prove to be a formidable challenger for the role. As the Jets continue to refine their lineup, the dynamics between these two players will be a storyline worth following in the lead-up to the season.
