    Ryan also puts up a lot of garbage time stats, the Falcons are trailing often, the Steelers don't need another old immobile QB.

    They drafted a RB in the first but go on.

    None of that changes the fact that AQL was right for hyping him, he’s balling out.

    He might be balling out, but my point is he wasn't an option for the Steelers.

    They met with him. He was an option. If Harris was gone before their pick there’s no telling who they would have taken. Lineman were gone, could have been JOK.

    His heart issue might have dropped him out of the first round, I don't think he was an option because Art II told them to improve the running game, their first pick was most likely going to be OL or RB.

    Then that leaves you with getting Wilson in the FA.

    It's better than Rudolph. And better than waiting for a draft in the years to come of trading up.

    Rodgers, Ryan, Wilson have some a lot for their teams.

    If I recall correctly, the Browns traded up to snatch him away from us

    And Seattle will want multiple first round picks for him most likely.

    The Steelers were taking Freiermuth in the second round as long as he was still on the board.

    Well, there is a guy in town at Pitt who is lighting up the scoreboards in college football this year and his name is Kenny Pickett. He can run and is slinging it. He is similar to Baker and Burrow in the way he plays. He should be #1 overall pick. Right now that's how it is.
    Other than that, an excellent QB will come out of Josh Dobbs' alma mater for what it's worth. His name is Hendon Hooker and he plays like Big Ben plus has a better arm, big arm, and can run like a gazelle.
    So there will be some options for Kevin. It's not all doom and gloom in this upcoming draft for QBs, I do not think.

    That should be fine. Specially when you're giving a first round anyhow to a seat pick for QB. And then another for a proven player.

    They won't be worth anything and we'll be complaining before week 3.

    I did hype him then. Have no second thoughts about it. Will hype up Kyle Hamilton equally as much.... if not more than. Few Safeties have ever impressed me coming out like he has.



    No doubt he is the best player in the class.... regardless of position. How so?! The gap between him and the next best safety vs the gap between someone like Kavon Thibodaux vs the next EDGE is not even laughably comparable.

    Alabama OL Evan Neal
    Texas A&M DL DeMarvin Leal
    LSU CB Derek Stingley Jr
    These players all will be considered among the best player in this class

    Evan Neal looks great overall but speed rushers this season have stymied him a bit. Stingley is out but he had already but together a great college career. Leal for me is not that high; Thibodaux being higher.

    Aaron Rodgers will be the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback next year. The Steelers will be drafting BPA, likely a O-Linman.

    Steelers have the receivers, young TE who will be better next year, especially with Rodgers throwing to him and a defense that is good enough to win it all with the right QB.

    Steelers won't need to draft a QB in the first and hope he works in a draft where there is no 100% franchise QB.

    We will have 2 maybe 3 years of Rodgers giving the Steelers a chance to win a title. And I like it.

    Its feasible, they won’t want to waste the defense, they’ll want to compete as soon as possible for a title.

    I would love to have ARod at the helm in 2022. I don’t give a crap if he’s a bit of a jackass. He’s still a stellar QB, and has a few years of high level play ahead of him. I can’t see it working out financially though.
