My thoughts on our roster....... Quarterbacks

I’m going the easy route

I expect Kyle Allen back as our #3

Mason will be a FA but how many more opportunities does he need unless he’s willing to concede he is at best a #3

Allen has a year in Smith’s system and he is vet minimum

 

It makes sense, but they knew that they had to start scoring more points, and did with Russ.

That's how many points our defense gave up in the wins that we sqeaked out with Fields. The defense was dominant. Fields only averaged 165 yds passing, 37 yards rushing, and 1 combined td per game. Those numbers aren't going to win you very many games in the NFL.

Don't get me wrong, he's definitely one of your best options next year, and at least they know that much.

 

I anticipate Fields to get one last shot in Pittsburgh anyhow. Arthur Smith likes him a lot too. This also makes me wonder if Smith doing both of these HC interviews are more pre-emptive strikes against the Front Office as opposed to him wanting another oppurtunity.


I also know I said in another form I would imagine both Khan and Weidl would target IDL in Round One. However, given the immeasurable talent and near immeasurable depth this IDL class possesses, I dont anticipate that to be the case barring the likes of Mason Graham or even Kenneth Grant being on the board; something I dont believe is possible at this point.


However, given how talent deficient this WR Class is, there isnt any guranatee that the likes of Luther Burden III, Isaiah Bond or even Emeka Egbuka will be available. Tre Harris from Ole Miss?! Not sure about that but if Fields is going to be thw guy moving forward, max out his chances by any means possible.

 

And with that you just described Russ. Oh but he can throw the deep ball.
