you ar drunk

Honestly, Colbert's track record with 1st round picks is as good as it gets. If Willis was their decision, I would stick by it even if that wouldn't have been my preference. The GM and scouting department's entire job is to bring the best available talent to our team, they certainly see more than us armchair GMs do

Would not be happy.

[Steeler-in-west]

Not good, but I’m sure Trubisky would be happy

I’ll come back and answer you in 2 years.

I still think Willis was a better pick with Trubisky already here.

Steelers were not the only ones that didnt think Willis was their guy.

“The Seahawks passed on Willis four times before he was taken 86th overall — feeling he was nowhere near NFL-ready, according to one source — and didn’t think enough of the other quarterbacks to take one with any of their nine selections.”

I'm happy that professional football GM, Coaches and Scouts run the Steelers drafts and not the fans.

Yeah because we would have taken Sam Howell in the first round if a couple of you did. Really dodged a bullet there.

I dont work for the Steeler there Skippy. I dont pretend to either.

I have said prior to the draft that I liked Howell and Pickett both from aspects of film, mechanics, reports of leadership, etc, but I dont get the benefit of conducting interviews with their coaches, teamates and the other dozens of hours of personal evaluation.

It's just funny to me that some people think because a guy is an athlete and has a strong arm, that he should be a top 10 pick, when he has a hard time hitting water from a boat.

Yet he was still picked ahead of Howell

Can't argue that. It will be interesting to see how it all unfolds.
