There is a report the Steelers inquired about Jacksonville QB Trevor Lawrence

Take it with a grain of salt not being reported by Schefter or Rapoport yet.

 

There goes our cap space, if we trade for him.

 

Give up their first and second round pick this year no way.

 

Are you saying that is a bad deal for the Steelers?

I don't know if Trevor is just overrated or stuck in Jax...but if he is a true franchise guy a 1st and a 2nd for a 25 year old franchise QB is a no brainer.

 

Lawrence has/had better coaching in Jax... than he would have here, unless Arthur Smith is given Arians-like control. He has better weapons in Jax. Jax has cap space and drafts early. He's a middle-of-the-pack QB, overrated like Herbert.

 

But Trevor has really only shown to be a franchise QB for one year?

 

Ah ok...just making sure what we were talking about.

 

I'd trade a first and a second for Justin all day. Overrated or not.

 

I wouldn't. Steelers should focus on 2026 draft for QB. Roll with a free agent QB in '25.

 

It's probably a fake story Jacksonville doesn't even have a GM, but they would be better off giving up picks in 2025 and 2026 if it were true.

 

Here is the transcript from the enquiry that is being reported.

Khan
“Hello, is Trevor Lawrence available for trade?”

Jags rep
“No he most certainly is not”

Khan
“Okay, thanks anyway”

 

If/when it is reported by Schefter or Rapoport take it with a grain of salt

Along with a shot of tequila

 

Agreed, but it is a moot point. Herbert isn't going anywhere.

This was the start of the season.
Trevor was 22.
Fields was 19.
Kirk cousin was 15.

So the only qb I'm willing to consider is cousin. But I really think Fields can step up even more with learning under wilson.

 

Just an FYI this was reported by Bill Burr of the Big 10 Network. He's claiming a source within the Jaguars organization.

 

Ryan Burr not Bill who is a comedian

 

I would trade a #1 and whatever else for Trevor or Justin.
Jacksonville is messed up. They do have a new staff, specifically to help their Franchise QB as Pederson failed miserably at.
I believe there was an inquiry, but it isn't going anywhere. Sometimes a new staff will want to go with their guys.

Chargers are going in the right direction; Harbaugh will have re-tooled his team by this fall.
Justin Herbert isn't going anywhere.

Apparently now it's not true.

 

I don't disagree, but either way they are going to have to give up some serious draft capital. They won't have a high enough pick next year to get one of the better options in the 26 draft.

 

The only QB that can immediately contribute in this existing offense is one that can run (i.e. Jackson, Hurts…). That OL is too porous right now.

 

YIKES! RIP that rumor. LOL

 

Does Lawrence make this team that much better? No. We can't protect him and are lacking WR's. He is not good enough and would be a waste of picks.

The only QB I would trade for is to fleece the Bengals for Joe Burrow. Gladly give up our 1 and 2 for him. Throw in a receiver, they can have another pick.

The Steelers need to find their next QB in the draft, that might take a couple of years.

 

I agree it has to be in draft. Lot of luck involved. Montana and Brady were later rounds. I'm prepared to take the hit for a few years until Tomlin is done. (I'm a Pirate fan, I'm use to loses) I want any drafted QB to have a new regime to guide him.
