    So how are the other drafted QB's doing

    For those two read my stuff I didn't want Pickett in round one. Nor any qb is round one, for that matter. I felt Matt Corall was the best of a bad poor QB class, and would have taken him in round three ( Pickens in round two is who I would have taken), over Leal who I like too. Well what do you know Corral is impressing in camp. He went 4-4 the other day and is running with the 2's already.

    They already taking about his quick release, which I a thing I liked about him and concern with Pickett. Behind our OL a fast release would be most welcome.

    Meanwhile I'm waiting for Pickett to show something...






    Draft

    1 ) Lloyd - Would like start and save us a ton of money we spent on Jack.
    2 ) Pickens. He was a steal.
    3 ) Corrall - A qb of the future

    Tomlin hasn't won a playoff game in seven years and counting. The earliest will be eight years. I guess that in Art Rooney's II, opinion is worth a 3 year extension.

    Our 2024 draft looks to be grade A. Our 2023 draft is an A. The roster is talented, but Mike Tomlin is still the head coach.

    Willis is reportedly struggling early on, which is to be expected.

      I heard that. I think he's going to disappoint anyway.

        It doesn't matter at this point. Some fans never learn.

          Lol, one of those articles shows video of Corral throwing the ball into a bucket from 10 yards away with no one else around him. Is that what has you excited? That he can hit a bucket wearing shorts and a jersey with no pads and no defense?

              I will take this opportunity to illustrate how we all "imagine" we are as Monday Morning GMs.

              You do accurately confirm you liked Corrall. Bu there is NO WAY you'd wait to the 3rd by your own words my friend.

              Corral has a great arm, he's semi mobile, and accurate. And he's doing it in the SEC on a mid talented team off to a hot start. Size at 6'2" is not and issue. Close to being sold on him being the pick if he keeps this up, then in round two go for a tackle and spend the non -qb cap space on another OL.
              By the way the ONLY mention of Lloyd you've ever made on this forum is this guy:

              In view of the fact that Mike Tomlin has matched Cowhers record I give him the designation:

                When I call MT a HOF Self Promoter I'm not ridiculing him. We all need some of that. MT is good and Leal in the 3rd is an inspired pick. I'm suggesting the Steelers deserve better than just a good HC.

                  You are right. And if Pickett is a fail then it could mark the beginning of the end for Tomlin and scouts who selected him, which some people would applaud.

                      How? MT will stay as long as he wishes. 86ing assistants and scouts is a breeze. Can you say Perception Management?

                        Until we get some legit quarterbacking , do you think we can get a legit assessment of Pickens?

                            Well DeAndre Hopkins finished the 2015 season with then-career highs in receptions (111), receiving yards (1,521), and touchdowns (11), despite playing with four different quarterbacks (Brian Hoyer, Ryan Mallett, T. J. Yates, and Brandon Weeden).

                              Captain Lemming,

                              I don't expect you to remember this but, I did a few posts on wanting Lloyd in round one and mock draft him in posts as our pick in round one. I also felt Corral was the best of the quarterbacks. Pickens was a player I liked, but I thought he would go in round one, but he fell to round two for various reasons, and the Steelers stole him. When Corral fell to round three, I wanted him.

                              5-1-22

                              You can only pick players who haven't been taken. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_NFL_Draft 1) ILB Lloyd. Plays the run and pass well, can also blitz. Takes Bush’s spot who does neither. 2) WR Pickens. Did not expect him to be on the board at the point. Best upside of the WR’s. 3. QB Matt Corral.


                              On Pickett 5-1-22


                              He only did it for one year and is nearly 24. Another one-year wonder's at least has the excuse of being new. Pickett started for three years before his breakout amd they were at best medicore years. His arm. Yes I said it. It's not a range issue it's a velocity issue. The throws the get there on time in the Big East will



                              And you replied to this post by saying.

                              I like it. I skip QB altogether, and could go with Leal.

                              Otherwise I like your list.
