The dude is a 4th round pick...if he has to come in at any point over the next three years and can win a game, it's a successful pick...

Hopefully Landry Jones can be more successful 4th round developmental QB prospect than Dennis Dixon was a 5th round developmental QB prospect.
Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.
Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.
We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.
We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.
we have gradkowski signed for two years, I think. There was no reason to take jones there to MAYBE start a game in 2-3 years if ben gets hurt.
I would much rather have a ballhawking FS like phillip thomas or bacarri rambo learning the ropes, or an OG/OT prospect to boost the terrible depth we have there.
jones was a terrible pick, IMO, even if he starts a handful of games in the next 3 years. We could have netted a starter there. Back up QBs are a dime a dozen.
We had terrible depth at the QB position...the most important position on the team...
If we still had Leftwich or Batch, people would complain about that...
He was a value pick in the 4th...
Patience. Give him a chance to develop.
But he holds the ball too long

give me a break. Batch was awful and he beat the champs in their back yard.
backup QB is a fungible position. To waste a 4th round pick with the depth this team has was criminal.
you had gradkowski under contract. We needed a backup to the backup more than a FS or OL help? Nope, not buying that.
Is a 4th round unknown going to be better than known commodities Robert Golden or Da'Mon Cromartie-Smith?
Is a 4th round unknown going to be better than known commodities Malecki or Beachum?
Jones was still a value pick in round 4...
I don't see a single known commodity in your list.
