Tim Benz and Mark Madden return for this week’s edition of “Unfiltered” on TribLive’s Facebook page to talk about JuJu Smith-Schuster’s outlook as free agency nears, Steelers needs, Penguins wins and more.

Madden just got back from Las Vegas again. He says much of the city is back up and running, although shows and concerts have not started up yet, and there is still limited attendance at Golden Knights game. But people are visiting the city.

The guys discuss the upcoming NFL free agency period and moves that will impact the Steelers.

Madden says JuJu Smith-Schuster will be somewhere else soon enough. And Madden won’t miss him.

“He’s no loss. His departure will not hurt the team. They have plenty at wide receiver.’ said Madden.

“If [the Steelers] are no good next year — and they probably won’t be — but it won’t be because JuJu Smith-‘Nobody’ isn’t a Steeler anymore.”

The guys discuss what team Smith-Schuster might sign with. They also talk about whether Alejandro Villanueva signs with the Steelers. And what other moves the team might make.

Madden and Benz talk about the Penguins recent run of wins and preview their upcoming games.

Benz and Madden also chat about Pirates spring training, the state of Pitt sports, NCAA tournament and answer viewers comments and questions.
