Colbert at UNC practice

[Shoes]

I didn’t know Colbert traveled so much during the college season.

Sam Howell profiles as another big-armed dual threat.

In other words, another athlete project like Haskins.

Well, we know he doesn’t negotiate contracts during the season so what else does he have to do?

Sam Howell appears to be quickly dropping down from #1 overall spot in the 2022 Draft. Hopefully, he pulls a Justin Herbert… and drops to the Steelers at 32 (and then regains his #1 overall form once he is drafted).

NOTE: Howell is NOT my favorite QB in this draft. But, I would gladly take him at the end of R1.

Also, if we don’t go QB in R1 (although, I’m assuming that we will… in fact, I expect a huge trade UP to get the guy of Colbert’s choice), I would love to draft a RG. Turner is close to the end; simply, he’s a stop-gap. Dan Moore’s teammate at Texas A&M, Kenyon Green, would be my pick of choice.

Colbert's final trick will be to manuever the Streelers into the rookie QB that lays the groundwork for the next bid playoff push. Then he'll retire.

It's called a "Newsome" and it's the GM equivalent to a walk off grand slam.

if we are not going for a QB in this next draft then I hope we trade out of round 1 acquiring picks in the 2023 draft as compensation for the ammo needed to go up and get our guy in 2023

Since Aaron Rodgers will be a FA we won’t need to give up any picks for him. Sounds like a plan.

against Virginia:
14/21 for 307 yards, 5 TDs, 1 INT
plus 112 rushing yards

Impressive

Which QB coming out meets with your approval? Which one isn't the next Kordell or Dennis Dixon? Enlighten us.

That post was before yesterday. After Howell's performance against Virginia and the fact that the Steelers just may be bad enough this year to take a shot at him, go for it.

But to answer your question, let's take a flyer on Cody Pickett or Spencer Rattler. He may have shown signs of regression, but I'm eager to see him bounce back.

You compared him to Haskins. Why would they go for it?

Who is Cody Pickett? Other than the 41-year-old ex-Washington Husky QB.

He is comparable to Haskins in his potential and ability. If Howell has the head for it, then yeah. And Kenny Pickett, excuse me.

I see what you did there.

I know next to nothing about Kenny Pickett, other than his stats until this year were very pedestrian. I guess he bears watching.

Howell is rising again.

Or, maybe the rest of the QB play is so atrocious that it makes him look better. Either way, “Howell in the top ten” has once again become a thing.
