it is what it is. They will not upset the apple cart and change.
Confirmed – Kevin Colbert Will Step Down after Draft
- Thread starter Steeler Nation
- Start date
Someone who could possibly be brought in to be interviewed and actually wouldn’t be a bad decision would be Doug Whaley. He is familiar with the organization and is a disciple of Colbert.
I would be all for Whaley.

We will miss Colbert. Odd how Steelers have not interviewed any coaches or thoughts of GM as other teams are racing to get coaches. Continuation of the continuation in Steeler land
Go on Instagram and check out some of the Steelers posters. You could get last year's news at a moments notice.
Sshh. Need the suspense in the offseason to keep things interesting

You'll find it at 2121 George Halas Dr NW, Canton, Ohio.
Wasn’t he the first and only official gm in Steelers history?
I thought they sort of had the rooneys as team President/ gm for a long time and had a seperate director of football operations role that was like a neutered gm until donahoe left…

Colbert was the first GM in team history. I can't find the article, but I recently read it had something to do with a technicality for the NFL Scouting Combine and gave him additional access or something of that nature.

Dale Lolley of DK PGH Sports reports that the Steelers want to talk to Colts assistant GM Ed Dodds and Titans VP of Player Personnel Ryan Cowden about their soon-to-be vacant GM position.
Steelers GM Kevin Colbert will retire after the 2022 NFL Draft, though reportedly may stay on in some role after the season as support. This is the first we've heard of real candidates to replace him. Dodds was a hot name in each of the last two offseasons and withdrew his name from consideration for the Bears job in January.
Two solid choices. I wouldn't lose sleep over either one getting the nod.
If I had to choose one it would be Cowden. He has an interesting track record dating back to the Panthers.

Very interesting information from Dale Lolley on DK's Friday Insider today. Apparently Tomlin wants Hunt as GM while Colbert favors Khan. ARII "isn't enamored with either." That makes sense given their internal guys are interviewing elsewhere and that the Steelers are looking outside rather than naming a replacement.
I think the organization could use some fresh ways of doing things...but I'm betting that Kahn gets the job.
