    Hope he does good.

    But since he's no longer a Steeler this should be in General. :)

    Wow. I am surprised they got a 5th for him. Jags must be desperate.

    On an unrelated note, can we get the OP to change his or MB handle? That isn't even funny.

    I assume that handle just meant they were a fan from the United Kingdom :shrug:

    SteelersUK? I assume he is from the UK and didn't realize it sort of looks like Steelers Suck.

    Correct.

    However after last night is there any objections to adding a ‘c’?

    Hodges would have already got the call if he was the clear decision- right? i think they are weighing options, except Landry Jones.
    Does anyone see an available QB they would like to see given consideration?

    Good luck Dobbs.

    Steelers clearly all in on Mason. I would have preferred they didn't put all their eggs in one basket but I think Mason is the future also and can be a good QB.

    Not the first time Colberts phone has been ringing for Dobbs

    dude if we were able to throw Tomlin in with the trade and they accepted him, I'd be willing to give 2 consecutive 1st rounders and 1 3rd, plus my prized scotty cameron custom putter.

    No spin is necessary. They had Super Bowl aspirations going into the 2018 season, so the backup quarterback should be the guy who gives them a chance to win if he has to play. Instead, they kept the guy who wasn't ready and it cost them in Oakland. They were lucky that Roethlisberger stayed relatively healthy.

    This is true. Pittsburgh likes to keep three QB's on their roster. I could not imagine anyone whom they could pick up besides him.

    So when did that value flip? (Dobbs>Landry)
    After the Oakland game?
    End of the season?
    Surely sometime before they got a draft pick for Dobbs.

    You think Rudolph is wishing he lost out to Dobbs at this time for a better chance to play QB with the Jags?

    I would also would not expect Jacksonville to be extremely good this season.

    This could be a fairly early 5th round pick.

    Everybody disagreed with me about trading people on the roster
    We have now traded 2. Hawkins and Dobbs, There should be more of this in present and the future,
    We have players that could have been packaged in lieu of cut.get something for them
    This is why mgmt should know what other team rosters are about.

    So we turned a fourth round pick in 2017 into a 2020 5th round pick. Like Dobbs, nice kid, but mostly a roster filler.
    This is only a win because that 4th rounder (Dobbs) turned out to be not that good.

    Just say'n. Don't get all hyped up on how good of a trade it was while missing that it was really a bad draft pick.
