    They only have one QB on the roster in Russell Wilson, they can probably get Fields for some mid round picks.

    I would not be surprised if Justin Fields trade is back on the table for the Steelers now.

    Justin Fields for a 4th... Here we Go!

    So essentially trade for Fields and then exercise the fifth year option?! Sounds like a plan for sure. Quite a bit of restructuring to do; Alex Highsmiths namely. Could also extend Cameron Heyward as well.

    And do what? Sit him a year behind Russ and then pay Fields 5th year option without seeing anything from him.

    Steelers are all in on Russ, they made that clear today.

    They dont have to pay the option if they think his value to re-sign is less than that 25 million. It seems pretty apparent that his value is less than the 5th year option.... Idk. I wouldn't say the option is set in stone, especially if we get him for like a 5th round pick.

    Don’t see it. Think they believe in Wilson. Bring in Fields and it says to Wilson he is a one year rental.

    Go all in and hope to hell he turns back the clock.

    I don't disagree, I was just pointing out that they had options based on the market for Fields. This definitely signals that they are sold on Wilson being good for more than one year. If that's the case bring in a decent back up option and maybe draft a developmental back up. Dobbs and Tannehill are both available. Garroppolo and Huntley are too. We aren't option-less.

    I would pass on Fields and bring in Tannehill. Use one of the late round picks on a rookie like Sam Hartman.

    Titans released Tannehill after the season. He is a free agent.

    I would rather get Joe Milton for a 3rd/4th over Fields.

    His value has definitely dropped. Could probably get him for the pick you just got for Pickett. I'd rather our pick #119 obviously.

    This is one of the qbs i agree on. If we can get him cheap. He can help the other qbs with Smiths offense

    There is no way Wilson thinks he is going to be our franchise qb. Yes, Wilson is maybe a 1 or 2 yr band aid, but hopefully our other qbs learn from Wilson
    This is the main reason we signed a veteran qb

    Im not nuking you for your opinion. In fact i have a bad bad feeling, Steelers are going to wheel n deal for Fields now that KFP is gone.
    Do I like the idea, after da Bears gave us the other first rd qb, that was awful? Hellz to the noooos

    If Steelers wanted Fields you’d hope they were on the phone this morning before trading KP away. Price definitely went up this afternoon

    How abt letting them compete for the job? RW is gonna get his $$$ no matter what this year...JF can and has made plays in the past. He hasn't had much talent around him since he has been in the league.. thats including players and coaches... trade for him and may the besT QB win

    Offer the bears both of the 2025 7th round draft picks we just received.
