OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: 5 and 2 Justin who? Hand the Fields to Wilson

[End of Line]

@End of Line - Will Howard kinda sucks

He’s a massive improvement over Honda. I mean massive. But how about Jeremiah Smith on the last drive?

 

[xlm34]

Milroe is gonna mess around and find himself in the 1st round conversation. Huge improvements as a passer this year.

And Beck is playing him out of the first round. I really hope Fields works out because this seems like a bad year to need a QB imo.

Bro those 2 catches are INSANE. Literally got me out of my seat. That kid is going to the NFL and going to be unreal

He could be playing in the NFL right now as a freshman. I don’t remember a freshman having this big of an impact on offense since Orlando Pace and I was just knee high to a grasshopper then.

Dude Will Howard is infinitely better than what we had last year

He does some stupid stuff but hes miles ahead of what McCord was.

also - 3 years of watching Jeremiah

 

[T1K]

Yeah based on the idea that Tomlin loves a Fields style QB, I thought Milroe made a ton of sense for the Steelers to look at drafting next year. Would be terrific if Fields can end up that guy, but if he ends up not working out, I definitely think Milroe could be the kind of guy the Steelers would look at drafting.

I wasn’t even really suggesting the Steelers draft him, it was just an observation from watching the game. I didn’t really think he had NFL starter potential last year, but he’s proving me wrong and he looks to have a very high ceiling. He’s outplayed Beck tonight by a lot. I see smart people on my timeline suggesting he’s playing his way into the top 10. Jayden Daniels had a similar meteoric rise up the mock drafts, but his was later in the season.

And Beck is playing him out of the first round. I really hope Fields works out because this seems like a bad year to need a QB imo.

Ward and Milroe are very intriguing to me, but I doubt either would even be available for us to draft without trading up.

Adams making business decisions. I’d trade a 1st for Adams in a heartbeat. They can take Russ too if they want.

“No way he gets traded” - @bigdaddyk88

 

[bigdaddyk88]

He is 32 hamstring injuries happen and he is on the books for 100 million almost next 2 years without guaranteed money

 

[WickedWrister]

Georgia making a comeback

Edit: This game is insane

 

[T1K]

Crazy ending. Beck is no longer a 1st rounder. No shot.

Adams is a professional. He’s not gonna be disgruntled in the media.

If you believe he’s playing for the Raiders beyond this season then I don’t know what to tell you, that would be a very contrarian opinion.

I'll still set the O/U at 4.5 QB's in the 1st this year. Beck, Milroe, Ward, Sanders and maybe one other guy (Ewers if Texas goes on a run when he gets healthy?).

Demand could dictate this as much as supply, we'll see but I could project that many teams needing QB this year. Still super early.

Travis Hunter should win the Heisman and I'd pay whatever it takes to trade up and get him if I were the GM.

I believe Ward and Sanders are for sure locks. Milroe probably sealed it for himself today, barring some type of collapse/injury. Personally I would take Ewers over Beck, he’s far more refined and was actually having a really good season prior to getting hurt. I could see Beck being a late 1st if a desperate team wanted to draft a QB, but I just haven’t seen it with him this year. He looked pretty bad against Kentucky too.

Almost every year position needs bump QB up. So give me the over
I agree with Sherman Hunter is a great Cb in the nfl but not a wr

Speaking of Kentucky I would have had Dart from ol miss as a sure 1st. Beck is a 1st rounder thanks to purdy success

Dart is a good one too. I’m not sure if his game will translate to the NFL but he’s fun in college.

They would be lucky to get a 4th in trade

I'm just trying to think what demand looks like.

Jets might be interested if Rogers is done
Dolphins ditto if Tua is done - I wouldn't assume either though
Browns... I'm sure they'd love to jettison Watson and try again but I'm not sure they can
Raider hurr doi
I think the Giants can escape Jones, right? In which case hurr doi
Panthers... definitely maybe
Seahawks, maybe. Smith ain't forever.
Rams, maybe. Stafford ain't forever.

Am I missing any? I feel like it's pretty unclear how many teams are going to be jonesing for 1st round QBs.

 

[bigdaddyk88]

Panthers Giants Raiders Titans Dolphins for sure Qb draft
Jets Rams Steelers Cleveland could

Titans are 0-3 and Levis aint it. Potentially the Steelers as well.

There should be a thread here dedicated to college football.

Yeah the Steelers occurred to me after I posted that, but thought I'd wait to see if others would bring it up

Good shout on the Titans.

Colts D is awful. Pickens breakout game?

 

[PensandCaps]

He's at 0.1 yards per carry more than Harris. If we're going to complain about Harris then, yeah, Warren has fallen off drastically.

Personally, since I think Harris' performance is more a function of his very inefficient usage rather than his talent, and I think Warren is still getting less carries in brick wall situations, I'm wondering whether Warren just doesn't fit Smith's scheme. We'll get a better idea once his legs are better but his numbers are a huge disappointment.

Again, hard to use stats for warren when he had only gotten like 12 carries.
