Mason Rudolph?

What do think? I mean if he is there @28 would you take him? Given our circumstances I think yes, but I'm a bigger picture guy. Landry & Dobbs aren't the future and the crop of QB's over the next 3 years doesn't look too promising either (IMO) so...Thoughts?

 

No

 

He will be off the board before we get a shot to draft him, I think the cards will move up from 15 a couple of spots and draft him IMO..........

 

Cleveland and the NY Jets are locks to take a QB. NY Giants can't pass on RB Saquon Barkley but they might take a QB.

Buffalo is sure to take a QB and Arizona might jump them, so, that's 4 QB's gone in the 1st round, I think it will be Darnold, Rosen, Allen, and Mayfield. Rudolph and Jackson go after that, maybe in the 2nd round.

Miami, I don't know, I kind of doubt they will use a high pick on a QB.

I think it's too early for us to draft a QB with a high pick.

 

FYI, Tomlin, Colbert, and Fitchner all at Louisville Pro Day. Had dinner with Lamar Jackson and others last night.

 

There was 2 other players they find interesting as well.

 

I don’t get why people aren’t higher on Rudolph. He looks the part and most important, He’s accurate. Doesn’t have a cannon for an arm, but is big and elusive in the pocket. More mobile than Ben. By all accounts, he seems to be a leader who excels at throwing short and intermediate passes, he completed a lot of accurate deep shots to jJames Washington.

Guaranteed the patriots are salivating at the chance to draft him.

If he was the highest draft prospect on their board when it’s our turn, we take him.

 

Agreed! Just saw him on Path to the draft and he mentioned his meeting with Tomlin and how "cool" it would be to play here. He would be a upgrade to Landry thats for sure.

 

I will put it this way. if its an offensive player, he is top of list. I still want defense but I am happy we signed burnett.

 

I would say,please no. I'm more of a all or nothing fan when it comes to sports. I want to put the best team around Ben for the next 3 years and I'm willing to see the bottom fall out for a couple years to find the next franchise QB and reload with high draft picks. I don't think Rudolph will ever be that. The conference he plays in allows for gaudy numbers,look at the track records. Landry put up sick numbers as well and he will never be confused with a franchise QB. Most of the O is in place we just need a few pieces on defense and I say we do all we can to fortify he D.....

 

He wont be an upgrade over LJ until he gets NFL experience, and we wont keep 4 QBs on the roster so Dobbs will be the odd man out because LJ will remain the backup......

 

hammer zz if you disagree at least explain why you disagree???

 

I think the question about Rudolph is more about where we are with Ben.

If we want a replacement and we think he is the guy....draft him.

If we want to win another Super Bowl with Ben....I think you draft some more D help. We still have no depth at S or at ILB. We also have questions at OLB when it comes to impact from the one side.

 

Because Landry isn't a winner/competitor like Rudolph is plain and simple. I'm sure Landry is fine with only having a handful of starts in his career where'as Rudolph is looking to only have a handful of sits if any, ya get me? His numbers and tape are far better than Landry or Dobbs and I'm sure whoever gets him will be thrilled. Thats why I disagree.
"Everyone around me doubted me when I said #7 will get us #5,#6, and #7, I was right about 2 so far..." hahaha

 

We can find quality depth for those positions in 3-5 tbh. QB's go the quickest, especially when the crop is deep.

 

Your so wrong, rudolph is going to have a whole lot of sits behind ben and landry before he ever starts a game, of course he wont be on the steelers doing the sitting, and your some kind of super bowl guru who can predict SB wins, thats really a funny statement......

 

Based on college stats career landry is way ahead of rudolph who had 92 TDs Landry had 123 TDs both played 4 years in the big 12, jones had the better production in my opinion......

 

I'm not gonna say you're wrong because I'm too lazy to check but didn't Landry put up some pretty good numbers at Ok.? NFL scouting has Rudolph compared to Christian Ponder they aren't the be all end all.....but Yikes! With all the teams needing QBs if he falls to 28 I think it kinda says something and I know you can point out plenty of guys who defied the draft status and scouting. Idk man I still want to do everything we can with Ben ,he's a proven commodity. I don't think drafting Rudolph helps for at least 3 years. I think we need to do all we can to win now...

 

Thanks I just posted something regarding Landry...thanks for bringing the facts...

 

So tell us then......does Rudolph get us 7-8-9 or 8-9-10 because if that's the case we should trade our entire draft for the number 1 pick.....
