Mason is worth more than a 6th, 5th, 4th

If some team is dumb enough to give up a 4th for Mason, you take it, 4th round pick>Mason knowing the playbook.

 

I really think Mason can’t wait to never have to come back to Pittsburgh unless it’s on a Sunday.

 

after tonights performance I now change my mind back to what I felt with Rudolph in the past.... and that is let him go for a 7th, just so we can put that money somewhere else.

 

He's terrible.

 

Disagree. i was not impressed with him like I was last week. But 17/21 with over 100 yards and a TD. Is good for pre season.

But I now say i would trade him for 6th. Just so we can get that money to someone else.

 

I trade him for a T, G or ILB, If I'm going to move him. There's some holes on this squad that gotta be fixes yesterday. I'd almost rather him chill with a clipboard than worry about a replay of 19 and see Oladokun get some regular season snaps. I think a deep QB room isn't a bad thing considering Pickett is a rookie and no matter how great he's looked, he's still going to have growing pains.

 

What's it like 2 see wrong completely in one, and be totally blind 2 the other???
Mitch throws behind the line of scrimmage....crickets.
Mason throws behind the line scrimmage....WHAT...can't He throw past the sticks.

Trubisky gets sacked...crickets.
Mason gets sacked....He can't read the field ...has no pocket awareness.

Trubisky has wide open guy ....misses by 5 yards...crickets
Mason makes a guy reach for the ball....He throws late, and unaccurately.

LoL....some of You are so funny

 

I think realistically you're only getting a 5th round pick for Mason for two reasons.

1) everyone has their QBs this year

2) He's in the last year of his contract.

So in reality, the Steelers will be waiting for injuries of other teams if they want to trade Rudolph.

As for the Steelers, our offensive line is not good enough to give an immobile QB time to hit deep on a consistent basis. Rudolph should go to a team that can give him the time needed to pass deep.

As I've said before, I don't think Mason is franchise QB material but can serve as a serviceable backup somewhere.

 

SteelersDepot has various trade scenario's here if anyone is interested.


Of the one's I want to happen, the Minnesota Vikings trade proposal is simply too good of a trade to pass up. Besides, Dotson seemingly cannot stay healthy and it is now fair to say that, while improved, Kendrick Green is simply not a starting caliber NFL Guard. Give those two some competition in addition to some insurance for the rest of the Offensive Line. John Leglue can be used elsewhere in my opinion; preferably the swing tackle.

 

Trubisky average 12 yards in air yards per attempts in the preseason and he has break 3-4 sacks so far in the preseason...I don't said that Trusbisky is a above average QB in this league but he is much better that Rudolph

 

It's very difficult to think anyone would use a third on MR. That's all he was worth coming out of college with potential. Can anyone say with a straight face he has lived up to that potential? If not, why would any one pay the same?

 

Malone was with the team 7 years
.not all starting of course. Bobby was with the team 6 years. Kordell 7, Neil 5. No actual gauge but as most took the starting job their 3rd year Malone and KS likely had the most starts between Terry and Ben.

 

Meh...3 million salary, 4 mill cap hit, 1 mill dead cap. Considering the total invested this year in QB salaries it's really not that much in reality.

I just remember a few years back and the mess we were in. That said not sure Dobbs would have done any better than what we had. My concern is the O line. Of Pickett starts can we protect him enough, not just injury wise, but how many Qbs have had their careers stuttered and outright ruined by sacks and pressures. You can't committ to the kid, then yank him in and out.

Idk..we want to compete and I want to believe we can, but glaring red flags on both ol and d. You have to think not only this year but long term. 5th or lower I think I keep him..4th you have to consider it.

 

Which was a good move..had no other qb under contract.

 

Though I agree with You a lot .....this is coming from someone that wanted us 2 trade for Watson, wanted us 2 draft Feleipe Franks at Qb ,wanted us 2 draft Malik Willis at Qb, and thinks Lamar Jackson is a great Qb. So while I agree with You on a lot, and Love what You got 2 say....I'll have 2 demure away from what You say about Qbs. LoL
Still Your friend.

 

We already have an OL in Green that is struggling. I’m not sure we want to trade for a guy who could barely hang onto the practice squad?

 

After watching our line yesterday and Mitch constantly running for his life on every play; Mason is going to be worth his weight in Gold as an injury replacement.

I don't know if you would want to turn Kenny Picket into the next tragic David Carr story.

 

Twice Mitch had a guy 2 throw 2 instead of watching the rush. I actually hope they start Mitch...won't be long. Same thing in Chicago...they complained about .... Him taking off when Wrs are open. That and His inaccurate deep throws.
He may have fixed His deep throws, but He still looks 2 run when guys are open.

 

Change of scenery could help for certain. It has thus far for Myles Jack. Who is to say lightning cannot strike twice here?! Yes, James Daniel's is still a major worry but Green has been a disaster.


At worst, Davis provides depth for the Guard spot. In addition and, as stated, John Leglue is better served as a swing tackle and not guard.

 

I don't ever remember Mitch having a clear pocket on any pass plays. There could have multiple wide-open receivers when Mitch was back scrambling for his life on every play.

After last night I am team Mitch. Let him rest his bruised body for the final preseason game, so he can be 100% healthy for the opener.

 

Have You actually watched the game???

 

Yes Green is terrible right now. Myles Jack is a terrible comparison. Trading a potential 2nd string QB for a guy that has struggled to stay on the practice squad is not a good idea. JMO

 

Yeah, and I think in those first 2 series Jacksonville could have gotten away with only having 4 players on the field! As soon as the ball was snapped either Mitch was immediately running for his life, or the RB was being tackled in the backfield.

Either Jacksonville has the greatest front 4 in NFL history, or we are completely screwed this year.
