    If Rodgers retires they will bring someone else in

    They will not go Into camp with Howard as QB1

    I doubt the will go into camp with Mason as QB1

    So the only question is Di you want Rodgers or someone else

    Rodgers coming back makes sense since Howard or a QB drafted can sit and learn like Allar.

    This team isn't close to competing for a Championship. Pieces need to be in place in several areas.

    Murray is 5'8" with lifts. And why if he is so franchise worthy if Arizona is giving him the gate?

    I don't see why it is so unfathomable to give Howard a shot at QB1 if Rodgers retires, especially if he shows well in training camp and pre-season, even if they do bring someone else in. I can guaranty you that "someone" else won't be anything special, just another teams reject. Anyway, Rogers will probably return, and he may very well be their best option available, but I'm not exactly thrilled with the prospect.

    Arizona wants his contract gone so that they can start again, it’s as simple as that. They paid him too much and they know it. Murray is never getting a deal like that again.

    Whoever the Steelers take at QB this season will likely be short term, one year, Rodgers, Murray, Mariota, whoever it is will be a stop gap. There is no long term answer coming this offseason so it really a case of who makes the most sense in terms of cost and team fit.

    I'd take him over Malik Willis any freaking day, but outside of that, No.

    Murray has next-to-zero value to any NFL team except for one thing. He'll be signing for league minimum. He'd be cheap.

    I was not a Murray fan from the moment my son came out of his room saying, "Hey, Dad. Guess who I was playing X-box with over the internet....Kyler Murray."
    This was on a Wednesday, during the regular season..... Murray playing X-box instead of preparing for the next game......
    Loser.

    Yes I do understand that. But the OP stated that he would be available to be the Steelers future starting QB? Hopefully in jest.

    Why would anyone want a castoff who is average or below like Fields and Willis? All are the same.

    The only admiration for some (not me) is that Arizona is on the hook for his remaining bonus. So he can sign for the vet minimum.

    Just let Rodgers come in again to appease "Run it Back" Rooney II and have either Howard or if they draft Aller take over next season.

    That's why at 28 years old Murray was booted out of Arizona instead of being an All Pro QB. He just never wanted to put in the work.

    A BIG No Thanks to Webster as the new QB......

    Live in area n have seen his games, guy is The Tin Man = No heart!!

    Takes sacks when pressure is near, simply isn't a winner n NOT what steelers need, IMO

    Thanks, but no thanks.

    I’d take Mason or Howard over him.

    After listening to the most recent Terrible Podcast, I retract any and all support I provided upthread re: signing Murray.

    Apparently he's a brutal deep ball passer even though he's played very few (almost no) games in cold weather and / or with precipitation.

    Sounds like the exact opposite of what we need in Pittsburgh.

    Although...since I (not so) secretly want a rebuild, maybe this would be a great choice for us.

    I don't think you literally mean you want ANYONE else besides Rodgers.

    Yes I think it’s very likely to be Rodgers for the Steelers, as unappealing as that is.

    I think Murray will end up on the Jets or Falcons where he might feel that he has a shot at a long term job. Honestly I don’t think he is as bad as some on here are making out. I wouldn’t be upset if the Steelers signed him for one year at vet min but he is certainly not what they need in the long term.
