Steelers' Derrick Harmon, Max Iheanachor Look Like Big Winners in Padded Practices of Training Camp

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Nick Farabaugh of PennLive.com.

The Pittsburgh Steelers had their second day of fully padded practices at training camp and their two most recent first round picks stood out big time. Christopher Carter and Nick Farabaugh talk about how Derrick Harmon and Max Iheanachor have looked strong in the early practices. Harmon's power is evident with how he dominates the line of scrimmage to the point that Aaron Rodgers is calling audibles to make sure the Steelers' offense doesn't run at him. Meanwhile, Iheanachor has showed off his quick feet in practice to win reps against star edge rushers like TJ Watt, Alex Highsmith and Nick Herbig. Also, Chris and Nick talk about how Mike McCarthy's passing attack is developing with Rodgers' playing more under center with a wider variety of quick passing concepts that involve DK Metcalf, Pat Freiermuth and Michael Pittman Jr. Could this be the factor that unlocks the rest of the offense? Finally, Chris and Nick review each of the players they've awareded players of practice to throughout camp, and assign some other winners and losers of the first week of practices. Has Roman Wilson stepped into a role that will make him a bigger factor in the offense?
