Round one - Pickett

Welcome aboard Kenny......now bring us a few more rings. 😀
 
So…the depth chart on opening day could be
1 Trubisky
2. Pickett
3. Rudy/whoever is on the roster and beats out Rudy
 
I thought for sure it was going to be Willis from all the talk before the draft but really glad we didn’t have to trade up. Good luck kid!
 
I'm so happy the Steelers selected Kenny Pickett. He's a great team leader and is an NFL capable QB. Let's hope he's the next great Steelers QB. Good Luck Kenny Pickett!
 
**** yeah no Willis ! ******* yeah!
I said the same thing. Not thrilled with the Picket selection. But at least it ain't Willis. I would've waited to selected either Ridder, Corral, or Howell later but if we had to take QB in the first im glad its Picket and not Willis.
 
Positives:
-Experience in pro style system
-52 games played
-Can make all the throws
-Good mobility to extend plays, scramble
-Tremendous work ethic
-Leader
-Very good accuracy last season, 42:7 TD:INT ratio

Negatives:
-Happy feet, runs self into pressure
-Depends on rolling out
-Decent, not great arm strength
-Lackluster production first three years
-Doesn't always throw receivers open

Feel the same way.if winning championships is your goal Pickett is not the answer. If being mediocre and middle of the pack we got our guy. He is not as good or athletic as Trubisky and next year's QB class is much better. We panicked and picked a QB in the worst QB class in years. Oh well hope Pickett proves us all wrong.
