17 Players attending the draft

No. He is a QB. Not a Taysom Hill type of player regardless of his talents.

When I brought the Taysom Hill comparison's, it wasn't a knock on Milroe one bit. It was a way to get him on the field early in his career, to be able to use his talents that don't need any fine tuning, while giving him the chance to sit and learn behind a vet as well. There's no denying that he's an electric athlete, but he's very raw at QB. So you bring him along slowly at QB, but don't let him waste away on the bench holding a clipboard either.

Similar to what they did with Kordell, though maybe not at WR. Unfortunately, we were promised that with Fields when Wilson returned last year, but that appeared hamhanded and forced when they would (rarely) put him in.

Milroe is the least pro-ready QB that the Steelers may have a shot at, but with the most upside. Really wish they had that 2nd round pick still.

And we already have a package of plays like this from last year with Fields.

I just don't want him with our 1st pick. And with the way QBs get drafted, I don't think he'll be around for our 3rd.

Fields was hurt (appeared concussed) after running plays in this formation, no?

He hurt his oblique on one play where he slid and still got hit. He missed the next game, and was back the week after that.

Bruh... come on. Stop. Kenny threw 13 ints to 13 TDs.

He also has the happiest feet in the league which results in him getting Deebo'd and a concussion.

Yes, Coach Canada was terrible but Kenny had ONE GAME where he looked like an NFL QB. One...

Not too long before getting hurt he had the most consecutive passes without an INT. He was also among the leaders in 4th Q rating and 4th Q comebacks. His best game was the game after Canada got fired then he got hurt the following game. I believe coaching removed the shackles in the 4th Q and allowed the guys to play. Pickett was not the second coming off marino, but he with a competent staff i think he would have been serviceable

It's likely to take a long time to get another very good QB.

My guess is that most of us won't live to see another Steelers QB that's as good as Ben was.

Many teams never have. Very few get to have two in most fans' lifetime.
