Bosko does NOT likey that pick!

I honestly think it would be worth a shot. He's got a ton of upside, but I get that they probably have more pressing needs than taking a chance on a QB in the second round that MIGHT make a difference. Better hope they get one in the first round if you do NOT likey this one!

Do you need re-programming? I have posted on other threads that MY STEELERS need a QB AND an RB. But this draft is NOT loaded with QB talent! So MY STEELERS better draft an RB to replace Harris!

Oh I agree (or my programmers do I guess...). I think they will go RB in the first round though and then QB in the second. Should be able to get both!

It's okay if you're making decisions and having feelings that go against what your programmers have programmed. Thats called LEARNING!! But back to football. BOSKO LIKEY if MY STEELERS can draft a quality RB AND QB this draft!!! However, I just dont think Jalen Milroe is the answer! Should have just kept Justin Fields if they wanted to go that style of QB route!

Definitely true, would save them 20 million against the cap for a similar player though. Maybe that would be their thought process on it. I've seen several teams/analysts being pretty high on Tyler Shough from Louisville as well. If they go with Milroe it would just be based on potential cause Shough is probably a better pure passer at this point.

With MY STEELERS trading for DK Metcalf, I would want a better passing QB. But I would prefer ANYONE over Aaron Rodgers!
