Yeah and they know the importance of the qb position.

Would you make that trade for pick 6?  It would be tempting but I probably would want their 2nd as well this year.  Steelers however very rarely have high first round picks.  10th 3 years ago and the rest are 20's.  Not sure if that is worth it to us

No. I’d take Willis.

Aren't all pro days good for the player? They're tailor made to make them look great. Neat, he made some deep throws to a designed spot with no pressure in his face!

I'd be OK with Wilis ... but not at 6th. Projects should be taken toward the end of the round. Top 10 should be players who are ready to start and kick butt from day one.

If they offer 3 firsts for him, it would be hard NOT to take it.  Grab Howell, Corral, or Ridder in that order with their pick and you have all sorts of capital to trade up next year or two if they don't work out.  If they do you have multiple first rounders to build around them.

Hilarious one of the better orgs in the league is linked heavily to Willis and rumors they’re willing to move up but we’ve got some people on here that want nothing to do with him

I get where you are coming from and I want Willis, but they are more equipped to develop him.  He can sit behind Mitch this year and their staff is superior to ours especially head coach...

 I don't know what the f*** you're watching that obviously was not the impression I got from watching.. In fact this entire thread is a f****** joke compared to actually watching this man's pro day

Wow, take it easy. I was just making an observation from one shot they had while Malik was throwing the ball. I didn’t mean to personally upset you there buddy.

You don’t miss out on talent because your staff sucks. Coaching staff can be replaced, talent is talent. Just like the bears and Justin fields.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
