While we may not see quite Higgins-level performance, it might be really good bang for the buck.
Then you can go all in on DT, OL, and TE between FA and the draft.

Outside WRs - Chase, Irwin/Iosivas
Slot - Jones
TE - Hudson/FA/draft pick
I don't think there's a single TE available that's good enough to offset how bad the entire pass catching group would be. That's Chase and a bunch of scrubs right there. If I were the Steelers I would just cheap shot Chase on play 1 (or just triple team him) and then watch Burrow throw to an offensive group of Irwin, Iosivas, C Jones, and Hudson. That's a PS/3rd string group.
They need to add both a TE and a WR. They don't need to be world beaters, but they need to be solid above average starters.
