Steelers Reportedly interested in LSU QB Mettenberger

[phillyesq]

If true, this makes the Landry Jones pick look even worse.

While I understand the need to have a reliable backup behind Ben, I didn't like Jones as a player. A QB that struggles with pressure seems poorly suited to be a backup.

Dangling Landry Jones as trade bait?

What possible value would he have as trade bait? We'd get a lower pick then we took him at. I don't see anyone giving up anything for him. Why would they?

Meh... competition for Landry...

[steelz09]

I'd rather have Landry than most of these Top QBs in this years draft. Manziel... lol

[legend of polamalu]

Huh....Now that I think of it I would rather have two Bergers than 1

haha... nice. I could go for that.

you think i bitch now. if this happens, look out!

The Steelers are interested in lots of players that they will never have in camp or on a roster. They always have a fourth camp arm and ZM could be nothing more than doing due diligence to find a guy to bring in who will likely be an UDFA. I hardly think this is an indictment of any QB currently on the roster.

Johnny Football will have an NFL career that dwarfs LJ by 1,000 times over. Whoever gets him will fill seats and win games.

Manziel will be boom or bust. He will either be Fran Tarkenton or Colt McCoy. My odds are on the latter.

My guess is if they were setting up an interview with Mettenberger, the real reason for it would be to gather intel on the likes of Odell Beckham and Jarvis Landry.

That's crazy talk. The hatred for one of the best play making QBs to ever come out of college dumbfounds me.

Exactly...I have never seen a QB like him.
