    vs Ole Miss today: 16-25, 173 yds 0 TDs and 3 ints

    I'm gonna watch Maryland play Penn St now to see all the Maryland players we're going to be drafting.
    he was already off my list after watching some highlight packages of games he played this year.

    lets actually shoot for a guy that can throw the ball well

      Its hard for me to evaluate Pitt talent because I’m a homer but I also thought Peterman was going to be legit and he struggled in the pro’s.

      Pickett is definitely having a great season.
      just read that Kenny Pickett's hand size is only 8 1/4".

      that's going to be an issue for a lot of teams.

        i read that was debunked by someone. its in the 9 inch range. may have been a pitt fan/alum

        but I have no idea how that ranks with 'big enough hands' / 'NFL level hands'

        where's Joel when you need him

          reading BCs Jurkovic came back today after missing 4 games and played well.

          he's from the area so that's always a plus with this organization. although he stiffed PITT after committing to them iirc.
          maybe that pissed off yinzer rooney

            only 2 QBs in Mel Kiper's top-25: Kenny Pickett at #20 and Malik Willis at #25.

            so we would have our pick of the litter if we want to draft our future QB this upcoming draft.

                And I doubt the top QBs make it into the 20s no matter what the rankings say.

                QBs get overdrafted.

                  Sounds like the litter belongs in a litter box.

                    Linderbaum will drop, no one drafts a center at #13, if he's as good as Kiper has him rated I'd love for the Steelers to draft him (I know that isn't on their list of things to do though) and I'd stay away Pickett in the 1st round should he be available when the Steelers draft in the 1st round.

                      McShay has Pickett at #14, Willis at #18 and Matt Corral at #26.

                      he also reveals his complete list of QB rankings:

                      Who is the No. 1 QB? How good is this receiver class? And who are the best pass-rushers on the board? Todd McShay ranks his top prospects, along with positional top 10s.

                        pickett's first 2 TDs look pro quality to me. 1st TD the DB took away the inside throw and KP put the ball on the outside shoulder

                        2nd TD avoided a free blitzer on 4th and 4 and found Addison in the back of the end zone. very ben like early in his career.

                            Adding that Hutchinson kid from Michigan to the defense would make them scary good. Dude oozes football from his pores.

                              Kenny Pickett just broke a 40-year-old Dan Marino record at Pitt
                              by John Buhler1 hour ago Follow @buhler118

                              Kenny Pickett broke a 40-year-old single-season passing record set by none other than Pitt football legend Dan Marino.

                              It was a record 40 years in the breaking, as Pitt football star quarterback Kenny Pickett has thrown for more touchdown passes in a season than Dan Marino.

                              Though this may be a different era of college football, Pickett has drawn a lot of comparisons to Marino this season, and for good reason. In a relatively weak quarterback draft class, Pickett has more often than not asserted his dominance over the competition. He can run it and he can spin it with the best of them. Check out Pickett’s record-setting 38th touchdown on the season for Pitt.

                              After the Syracuse game, Pitt will face Wake Forest in the 2021 ACC Championship in Charlotte.


                              Pitt football star QB Kenny Pickett breaks a Dan Marino passing record
                              While it remains to be seen if Pickett will get an invitation to the Heisman Trophy ceremony or be the first quarterback taken in the 2022 NFL Draft, he has cemented himself as a Pitt football legend. With presumably a win over Wake Forest in Charlotte, the Panthers will find themselves playing in almost certainly the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl as part of this year’s New Year’s Six games.


                              Had Pitt not lost a dumb one very early in the year in the non-conference to Western Michigan, this team would be in contention for a College Football Playoff berth. However, the ACC has been down the entire year. Clemson has struggled and no team will come out of the regular season with more than two losses. Still, this has been a phenomenal year for Pickett and the Pitt football team.


                              If Pickett is half the player Marino was in the NFL, then he will be a total franchise game-changer.

                                one of the guys in the booth said pickett is the "most ready" qb to go in the draft after the year.
                                and that its great timing for him because mac jones was the most ready guy last year and is doing well this year.

                                let's say we pick #14 in the 1st round

                                do you take pickett there?
