Who QBs the Steelers next season?

[fastforward]

Bring him home.

I heard talk about Russell

Doubt it.

I know that he wants to explore all options available to him, and good on him for it, but he has said the following....

Russell Wilson hints at uncertain offseason: 'I hope it’s not my last game [in Seattle]'

Russell Wilson knows he could be involved in trade rumors in the offseason.

Russell Wilson Wants to Win More Super Bowls, Plans to 'Win Them' With Seahawks

While Wilson provided a somewhat more definitive statement about wanting to continue playing in Seattle in 2022 and beyond, his comments on his no-trade clause still left a sense of uncertainty about his future heading towards the offseason.

Which is fine by me. Most of my Hawks Breathen will be shocked by that statement

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

I highly doubt the Steelers go after Russ or Aaron. Have to give up too much compensation and it's not really the way they do things there.

Funny I don't see the name Dwayne Haskins floating around anywhere. I have a bet with a guy on a Washington board that he won't be a top 10 passer in the next 5 seasons. Yeah I'm good.

Haskins has three months to grow up, and I don't think the Steelers are holding their breath in the meantime.

My guess is the Steelers draft a QB, and Haskins will have a chance to show leadership and win the job, otherwise Rudolph will play until they think the new kid is ready.

Going all in on a good-for-a-few-years QB like Wilson or Rodgers doesn't seem like their style.

Laugh if you like, but Fitzpatrick is not that bad an idea if you have no QB and want to be competitive the first half of the season while your rookie learns. He knows the drill.

Its going to be a bridge year. Get a vet FA that can sign for cheap. I'm not opposed to drafting one as well to increase the odds of finding a capable starter.

Minshew is pretty high on my wishlist to be honest. And I like Pickett but I doubt he's available at 20.

I'm hoping they go big on OL in both FA & the draft. Fix the real issue plaguing this offense and build around Najee. Doesn't feel like the right year to throw draft capital around at acquiring a star QB.

Teddy Bridgewater.

Yeah, that's what I think they do. They just need a placeholder and retool the rest. They might get lucky and find a rough diamond out of nowhere in a later round. You never know in this league.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Don't they already have Josh Dobbs on the roster?

 

[blue_suns]

Flacco

I agree with most of your thoughts. Minshew would/ should be high on a wishlist and yes not the year to spend draft capitol on a big name rookie QB so work on other areas, OL being one that 80% of the league needs help at so may be expensive/ difficult to make gains at and over paying is going to be required in most cases. Wish college football would put more effort in polishing OL and making it easier to transition into the pros.

Kenny Pickkett

Dont tease me. Hes long gone by the time they pick i think.

Mason Rudolph.

Probably

I heard talk about Russell

Nope

Maybe Rodgers @LambeauLegs

Way more likely than russ

Ryan Fitzpatrick.

Im ok with that.

JimmyG until they can draft and develop their future.

No no no

Things are changing. Colbert is retiring. Likely gonna lose omar khan, keith butler is likely gonna retire, bens moving on, and theres more. Lots of MAJOR people leaving.

I know people laughed at my Fitzpatrick comment, but I’m being serious.


It’s the perfect situation for him on a one year deal. Tons of above average options for targets. And honestly, he most likely isn’t a much of a step back from Ben at this point.


Very little risk imo.

 

[Caliskinsfan]

Haskins

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Actually, Fitzmagic makes a lot of sense now that I think about this. I'd completely forgot about him. And @SteelersPride , I knew the JimmyG comment would get you buddy. I was kinda just half joking on that one.

 

[thedddd]

Haskins

You laugh but it most likely will be the competition between and Rudolph.
We all know they aren't trading up to take a QB and won't trade away that pick for a QB so I fully accepted the fact one of those two will be starter.

I agree 100%. His name has crossed my mind to bring in. We have young weapons. Line should improve with some additions and another year. He knows his role, and embraces it. Great locker room guy. Low risk, high reward. Tomlin has mentioned wanting a vet, and one thats mobile. Fitz was mobile, we’ll see after his injury. But hes a great stopgap option.

I know i know. Lol. I have a bad feeling about him
Coming to pgh. Fitz does make a ton of sense. Minshew actually does as well.

I laugh only because of lack of maturity and growth in DC. No clue how he's done with Tomlin and a functional team. How has he done? He definitely has the arm talent

Flacco

Shut your filthy whore mouth, you!

 

[wings-pens2166]

I’d be fine with FitzMagic as a bridge year.
