1st 3rd Round Pick allar

[tapeANaspirin2it]

Parker Washington's last year was Allar's freshman year, he threw 60 passes the entire year. And as for the TE's, Brenton Strange again only played with Allar his freshman year, Theo Johnson had one year with him, 34 receptions for 341, and Tyler Warren, the only real legitimate target he had at Penn State, his last year was coincidentally Allar's (and Warren's) best season...

The fact that Franklin made Warren wait his turn behind Strange and Theo Johnson sums it up for Penn State. Strange and Johnson were good but not potential game changers like Warren.

Last season, he's sending Liam Clifford out there and high upside WR Kobe Howard barely played.

We hear rumors of trading Rudolph but he is cheap, veteran. He stays. Rogers isn't on the team . I think they go with Rudolph, not Roger's.

I would really like to see Rudolph with MM coaching him up. Maybe he could turn into a decent starter with a actual QB whisper in his corner.

With McCarty's first draft, the Steelers finally completed the puzzle to have pieces at every spot to set up a young QB for success. Of course, the rookies need to develop and live up to their potential. If that happens, I like the core they've built.

The OL will need time to develop, but the future group is looking like: Fautanu, Dunker, Frazier, McCormick, Iheanachor
RBs: Dowdle, Warren, Heidenreich
TEs: Freiermuth, Washington
WRs: DK, Pittman, Bernard, Wilson

Zero chance Tomlin drafts that many offensive players.

Nope. They would've loaded up on defense.

I'll give you Washington and Strange as he was a Freshman. But, the other two only strengthen my point that he had some decent targets in those TEs regardless of the crap he had at WR. Presumably he will have a chance to work with better WRs and a good top 2 TEs while in Pittsburgh. Let's see what he does with that.

I'm not sure how it strengthens your point. As I said, Allar had his best year in 2024, also his only year with Warren starting, and Warren had 104 catches. The only legitimate target he had and it was also his best year...meaning, give the kid some weapons and coaching and see what happens.

Mike Tomlin is gone, move on already. Bill Cowher didn't want Ben either, the HC doesn't get everything he wants in Pittsburgh. They have input, but the idea that they can do whatever they want is laughable. It always has been.

Allar's dad played TE with Charlie Batch at Eastern Michigan

You're not sure how it strengthens my point? My point was that, contrary to what was said, Allar did have "some" receiving weapons. I didn't say alot. But, some. You pointed out that two of the four that I referenced couldn't really be attached to him. That left two (one of whom was excellent) weapons that he had during his 2 full years as a starter. Wrs? No. TEs though ... he had one serviceable weapon and one All-American, 1st round draft pick.
As far as what he can or can't do with weapons surrounding him, I do believe that I have said "Let's see"; because he'll have some here.
