Jalen Ramsey Trade Gives Steelers Best Corner Trio in NFL

The Pittsburgh Steelers just made a blockbuster trade for one of the best cornerback of this generation in Jalen Ramsey, and it makes their secondary even more intimidating.

Some do not like the fact that they had to give up star safety Minkah Fitzpatrick in the trade. But if you value star cornerbacks over safeties, then the Steelers have one of, if not the best unit in the entire NFL.

While this past season was the first year since 2019 that Ramsey was not named to the Pro Bowl, he still had a very solid season. He tallied 60 total tackles, six tackles for loss, two interceptions, and 11 pass deflections.

Former Philadelphia Eagles star cornerback Darius Slay is another player that the team just acquired this offseason, and he will give the team a solid veteran presence as well. He was able to finish top 15 in the league this past season in pass deflections with 13.

As for a player the team already had, Joey Porter Jr. is one of the best young defensive backs in the league. He was able to improve on his solid rookie season by almost doubling his tackles numbers and defending a solid seven passes.

These three players combined form one of, if not the best cornerback trio in the entire NFL, and they will be looking to help lead the team to the postseason for the third year in a row.
