The Pittsburgh Penguins are in the early stages of a rebuild and have spent most of the 2024-25 season selling off veteran assets to collect draft picks and prospects. They hope to complete this rebuild relatively quickly, but the playoffs never seemed like a realistic possibility at any point this season.
Remove the name. Remove the North Carolina brand and its history. If any other mid-level program had that sort of resume going into selection weekend, what sort of chance would they have to get into the tournament?
Through all of this change, there is still one big issue that has not received anywhere near enough attention this offseason.
Cooper Kupp wasn't the only big name in the news on Friday. Who won and lost during the latest round of free-agency news?

The only losers are the teams Bosa will face.
The San Francisco 49ers were, by pretty much every objective measure, one of the NFL’s best teams between 2019-23. They played in four conference championship games, played in two Super Bowls and won at least 10 games in four of the five seasons during that stretch.

It is a huge deal for the Steelers offense. It is also a fascinating deal because it now creates some uncertainty around the returning top wide receiver in Pittsburgh.
The Buffalo Bills have spent the offseason re-signing core players to long-term contract extensions. None of them compare to the one they handed out on Sunday night. Not in terms of money, and certainly not in terms of importance.
Sam Darnold is the top quarterback option available this offseason, but he would be an extraordinary risk for the Steelers should they be able to strike a deal with him.
The top NFL free agents keep coming off the board before the offseason officially begins.
The Carolina Hurricanes Mikko Rantanen saga was quite an ordeal over the past week, finally concluding with him being traded to the Dallas Stars for Logan Stankoven, two first-round picks and two third-round picks on Friday afternoon.

The Cincinnati Bengals reportedly signed one of quarterback Joe Burrow's top passing game targets.
