Steelers quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Justin Fields each performed with nice effort this season as they helped the Steelers attain 10 wins to get them to the playoffs.
Nonetheless, that was so far as they may go.
Wilson and Fields had been secure choices at quarterback as a result of they had been sensible with the soccer and knew the way to run the offense.
However ultimately, the Steelers would possibly want a quarterback who can really elevate the crew.
Now, is it value it to commerce away arguably the very best defensive participant within the recreation in T.J. Watt, together with a 1,000-yard receiver in George Pickens?
Most likely not.
To not point out the truth that in Cowherd’s hypothetical situation, they might be gifting away two first-rounders for an unproven participant.
These belongings are means too essential.
If they’re on the lookout for a win-now quarterback who can get them excessive, why not attempt to get Aaron Rodgers for affordable if he’s accessible?
He proved that he can nonetheless play at a excessive degree this yr, and he may doubtlessly additionally carry Davante Adams with him.
