Even at the end of the season we won't know. I don't think anyone can consistently scout college QBs to the NFL level.

I think it's the difference in game speed (and required processing speed) that makes it so hard to predict success. And that so few humans are capable of being good NFL QBs, so most people can't succeed in the league.

Even guys with great college play.

 

You might be right...things could so south real quick and change everything. Right now definitely seems like he is enjoying himself and could see him wanting to come back and make another run at it.

 

I dont think we need to take a QB this draft. use the picks to build the team . Start Howard next year and see what he is capable of.. Best case he plays well and looks like a franchise Qb. worst case he sucks and we have high draft picks in 2027

 

Not with many of those vets on the team they aren't going to turn the team over to Howard.

 

That could be said with a first round Qb also.. Ward and the rest of the vets prob prob felt the same When Ben was thrown into the lineup. and that turned out alright

 

Exactly, so at least let's see them play 1st, instead of someone trying to tell me who would be in the 1st round before they even played a game. LoL

 

They didn't intend to play Ben that early though he was like 3rd string he had to play because of injury.

 

If they don’t draft a QB they will not start the season with Howard automatically they will do what they did this year and last.

Howard will be given a chance in camp but they will go with whomever gives them the best chance to win each week as they should.

AR maybe back.

 

Alan Faneca says hi.

 

I don't know why people seem to count on this ever happening. Tomlin could start the corpse of Bobby Layne at QB and still go 9-8.

 

If we don't trade up for a QB this draft, I'd like us to trade out of a couple of those 3rd rounders to try to pick up 2nd round picks the following draft.

I don't know if we'll do that because (1) we basically never trade for future picks and (2) I don't see us trading out of picks when the draft is in Pittsburgh.
