Can we move up in the 2026 draft to get a quarterback

We tanking 2026 and get QB 2027. LOL.

 

That really is all they can do, there was a vid on Howard throwing a 'dart'. A3 to 5 yard pass, lol. It was fine, nice throw kid, but some of the comments were laughable, 'our next franchise QB!'. I hope Howard has a good camp and preseason, I hope he shows enough against other scrubs that the team can feel good about future development. The draft next year will take care of itself, it is what you see this year that will determine the choices they make.

 

I'm hoping Brice was trying be to sarcastic, as in we take Bears 1st round QB busts by recent tradition. Reportedly the guy could not complete a call in the huddle several times and Ben Johnson was livid. How true is that camp statement, cant say as it came from Cowherd, 'nuff said. lol

 

I gave a pass to Williams for his rookie season last season since he had such a clueless head coach(who cost at least 2 games by himself) with a bad OC....But for this season,if he continue to struggle under Ben Johnson,it will be a huge red flag

 

The team can make a decent prospect lousy, but someone with the greatest skills who refuses coaching will show themselves eventually. Have no idea what if anything is going on with him or the bears, but it will be interesting to see if the bears landed a good one or their losing streak continues.

 

I saw Kyle Brandt today who is on assignment with the NFL Network to report from Latrobe during training camp. He was saying today that of course Rodgers is the starter but Will Howard has looked and he added "I mean really good!"

 

may not be drafting one in the first next year.

maybe we keep drafting o-linemen. maybe another position. all options could be open.

 

I can believe that Caleb was benched by Ben Johnson. If anything, that is what Caleb needs; good discipline. Nothing will ever be given in life; much less the NFL. He has to earn it.


As for your first statement?! I wouldn't be surprised if the team elects to pursue Anthony Richardson in 2026. I don't think he is for long in Indy.

 

Again, that would be the dream scenario for Will Howard to be "the one." Quite a bit has to happen though for that to occur. He has had a rock solid first two days of Training Camp according to reports. Should he continue to light it up when the pads come on, that will give the idea of him being it some traction.


Until then, I am 100% convinced that the Steelers will be nabbing a QB in 2026. Way too much draft capital not to unless and, again, Will Howard just shatters any and all expectations.

 

Yes but he was fawning over Kenny Pickett after his rookie season and questioned why teams passed on him. We all know how well that went. But I’ll give him a pass since he’s a Steelers homer and his judgement can be clouded at times

Steelers homer??Homer??? He's a Bears fan.

 

Because we always seem to take the Bears 1st round trash. We live in the Bears recycle bin

 

Playing against backups and future bag boys?

The reason for Howard's drop in the draft according to some scouts is his occasional inconsistency. Can he really play 60 snaps at a high level? Or will he be a Kyler Murray type where he looks great for a quarter or a half but struggles to put together a complete game?

 

I agree, but You have to remember that a lot of those so called bag boys are the best of what He played against in college.....so......being a rookie , right now that's not a bad thing. Two years from now, well that's another thing entirely.
