QB can't move well and we have no offensive line. He might be a good NFL QB but he would likely be a disaster here if drafted by us now in our current state.

He’s been the guy I’ve wanted the Steelers to take since before the season. At 20 they should get a shot.

At 20 he's all theirs if they want.  Dude is projected QB 5 on average.   No way 5 QBs go in the top 20 in this draft.

I want to see him, Willis, and Zappe at the Senior Bowl. See them against better competition with a better supporting cast.

Not too worried about what self-proclaimed “experts” think.

He'll be there at 20, but I think they take Howell over Strong.  Willis may still be on the board, but he's a huge project and will need to sit.  Not sure the Steelers want to red shirt a QB a year or two.

Steelers' representatives have spent a lot of time in Chapel Hill over the past year.

Howell wouldn’t bother me either. Willis will NOT be a Steeler.

He reminds me a lot of Nick Foles when he came out of college.

Another Ryan Mallet?

Throw it through a brick wall, but where?

Hes got potential but I think maybe too much value is being put into having a strong arm specifically.

It's the single trait most often associated with overdrafting a QB. Its the QB equivalent to a WR 40 time.

A rocket arm is an awesome thing to have but it won't make up for a lack of everything else.

For a Drew Bledsoe type to work in the modern NFL you're going to have to put him behind a stout OL and he's going to have to have a great football mind.

John Elway would love Strong and that's a pretty big red flag.

Strong arm?

That would lean towards a vertical passing game, no?

5 or 7 step drops?

Currently our line would get any rookie/vet or otherwise murdered.
