WTF are we doing?

That is a great analogy. I'm laughing because in your Browns explanation you pretty much summed up my short childhood baseball career. It just felt good to swing, man.

Always feels better to swing than to sit there watching…the anology as I look at again also reminds me of 20 something me at the bars 🤣
 
With 12 picks, and 5 in the first 2 days, I'd be amazed if we don't come away with a QB.

If/when Rodgers comes back, I disagree with many. I would take Simpson as high as #21, simply because we have 4 more Day 2 picks to fill LT/LG & WR, ILB or CB.

We might not have a year with the draft capital to 'waste' on a shot-in-the-dark QB. Are they the best QB options of all time?

Hard to say. Most of the top guys have some traits to work with. I don't think the Steelers can afford (or will be comfortable) assuming 6th round QB Howard is THE answer. I'd feel much better having Howard battle with Simpson, Beck, Nussmeier or Allar for the 'developmental QB' role.

If none of the QB's work, draft one in 2027. And 2028. 2029. Draft a QB until you get THE QB.

Not drafting one means our future relies on a 6th rounder beating the odds. Not saying it can't happen. Just that it doesn't happen very often.
Think they will be in the 3-4 range.
