Steelers grab Iowa RB in the 3rd. Pass on a QB. Sanders and Milroe were available. I was surprised.

Timing, presence, footwork. His arm is mid and so is his accuracy. He's not built for the AFC North. He doesn't have the presence or the vision.

He was maasively overrated. Pickett was more ready for Primetime. This kid's destined for a bench and an early exit from the game.

You’re completely wrong. 74% completion rate, one of the highest in the FBS. 37tds/10 ints, pretty good ratio. While he’s not a runner, he’s elusive in the pocket and always looks downfield. The biggest complaint against him was he took too many sacks. But he played behind a terrible OL. The rest of what you’ve posted is pure twaddle. You wouldn’t know good QB footwork if it was dancing on your head. Was he overrated? Probably. I didn’t think he was a 1st round talent. 3rd round? Sure. The RB they took seems like Najee lite.

In case you haven’t noticed, the Steelers are in a dire QB situation. They’re like the dork of the class waiting to get a prom date with Rodgers. But if that doesn’t work out, there’s always Mason there to bail them out. Because he has good footwork, vision and presence!!!!

Field vision you say?

“What Orlovsky has seen in that small sample size sounds pretty good. He went on to say that he has elite field vision, comparing him favorably to Tua Tagovailoa. He also likes his rhythm, timing and ball placement and thinks he's going to win a lot of games in the NFL.”

Steelers take Jack Sawyer in the 4rth. Reminds me of TJ. Same size, relentless and a play maker.

I remember this play

Kenny Pickett was so bad the Steelers may never draft a QB again… #CTESPN

is there a way to mark post to find easier in the future? I like to see who is right about sanders in a year or two.

They offered Fields a contract. He stiff armed them.

Well. The Browns grabbed Sanders. Yeah, that means the AFC North Mr Gristle!!!!! I bet he beats out Pickett sooner rather than later.,

I look forward to the Steelers sacking Sanders repeatedly... assuming he isn't riding the pine

You thought the Steelers should draft him and that he's better than Rudolph, so...

I didn’t say that Mr Gristle. I said he wasn’t a first round talent but a third would be more reasonable. I stated the obvious that Rudolph is the starting QB today. No more, no less. Is your reading comprehension declining or do you need new glasses?
