Steelers sign Trubisky

Like it. Two year deal as a bridge QB. Steelers draft their QB of the future in 2023.

Was he cut by Buffalo? If they gave up any draft capital for this putz we need Colbert to retire already.

I'm pretty sure he's a UFA. 1 year deal with Buf last year.

Hope it's somewhere around what we're paying Mason this year. With an easy option to cut next year.

2 years make sense because we had 0 QBs under contract for 2023.

No down side to this signing. Don't have to reach in this draft.

Next year is rated as much better and deeper QB draft

Easiest team in the NFL to read, BTW. They're totally trading up for Malik Willis. Everybody knows it.

I kind of think signing a QB now means we're not looking for a QB in the 1st...although that's what I want so I could easily just be looking for what I want to happen.

We'll only have 4 guys come to camp and one of them won't make the team.

Signing a UFA means that we'll have to cut Haskins if we draft someone.

Certainly not the end of the world. But if the plan is really to go all in and trade up, why not just have the draft pick play behind Mason and Haskins and save the cap space for Mitch somewhere else.

....and with these two QBs (Mason and Trubisky) on the roster, the Steelers will end the season with a high enough draft pick in 2023 to get their QB of the future.

smh. Cheap a$$ organization!

This ends the Watson dream but I think that ended weeks ago when everyone said the Steelers were not interested.

That will sell sone tickets.
lol

of it’s more then 5M per year, it’s a bad move

I honestly don't think so...

Structure might matter.

It could be something where it's not hard to get out of after year 1, but the value ramps up quickly in year 2.

I don't think that would be terrible as long as we can get out.

Cheap in year 1. But if we decide that you're going to be a starter in year 2, then you get paid more.

The problem with that structure would be that if we decide we don't want him to start in year 2, we're back to having no QBs on the roster in 2023.

I guess the worrisome thing about this is that it's a minute 1 contract in the UFA period.

That's definitely when you overpay guys.

Looking forward to seeing what the value it.
