    Re: Time to Draft a back up OB.

    A guy I would love to see the Steelers bring in is Chris Forcier from Furman. I got to see some Southern conference ball down here in Georgia, and this kid can flat out play. Yes, small FCS school, but he was highly recruited by big schools coming out of HS. Coaching changes forced him to transfer from UCLA and an injury really set his development back. But, he has all the tools to be a good QB in the NFL.

    6 foot 3, 4.5 40 speed, strong arm, accurate passer

    64.1% passes completed, 9.8 yards per pass, 2200+ yards with 23 TDs and 8 Ints.

    This kid has tremendous upside, very athletic just needs coached up and some PT.
    Trolls are people too.

    I agree that we need a developmental back up. Some interesting possibilities: Ryan Lindley (SD State), Kirk Cousins (Misch St), Case Keenum (Houston), Brock Osweiler (Az St)
    Funny but not true!! Kellen Moore is the only QB in the country not to lose to any AQ team in 4 seasons as the starter. He is not Ben Roethlisberger and he will get rid of the ball quickly. Surely you can't expect any OL to protect a QB hanging on to the ball as long as Ben does, do you? Plus Moore, is the most intelligent QB in the draft, a great team leader and an accurate passer. He would be the perfect backup to Ben IMO.

    That said, didn't we just sign a QB?
    Sorry I need a proof reader. Thats why I don't post much. But at least it got you to look at my thread!

    Well yes we did sign a UDFA QB. But I think he lost some of his stuff with shoulder surgery. Might end up a WR or TE? If he wants to play in the NFL. He also did play a few snaps at WR in college.

    Also the Author of this article did screw up a few things. But it got you guys talking QB's in the draft. Which is what I was going for. Thanks guys.

    The kid can sling it...
    I lost a bet about Najee gaining 1300 yards.

    "Our head coach has failed to win a playoff game for seven years in a row. His game day strategy, culture of divas, in game decisions, clock management, player evaluation, hires, and affinity with sub par starters at RB, P, and OL are holding the Steelers back. That standard remains the standard"

    Ed: Steelers Searching For No. 3 QB

    FRIDAY, 20 JANUARY 2012 14:31 WRITTEN BY ED BOUCHETTE


    The Steelers have signed 2006 Heisman Trophy winner Troy Smith to a futures contract, the second quarterback who has signed a futures dealwith them for 2012. Jerrod Johnson of Texas A&M was announced earlier this week.

    All it means is that the Steelers are looking for a No. 3 quarterback. They expect to re-sign Byron Leftwich to back up Ben Roethlisberger. Dennis Dixon and Charlie Batch are both unrestricted free agents. Dixon is not expected back.
