And I simply give him the bird back
Eff Tom Brady
Because One cheater in all of the history of the draft does something “special” as a 6th rounder does not make Will Howard’s chances any better.
TBH if his ceiling is “Mason Rudolph level” as a QB the Steelers got a home run in the 6th and he likely won’t have as successful a career as Mason has had…but we can all certainly dream
Heck if he’s Hasselback, Bulger, Derek Anderson or Tyrod Taylor I’d be shocked. I think a ton of people got expectations set very high because of one interview with Gruden.
Time will tell, but to put the fate of the all important Tomlinship in the hands of a 6th rounder who has never taken a single NFL snap is ludicrous.

Ty is more mobile than Howard ....... but not enough so to make him a better option at the pro level
Howard is a bigger QB that I think is more suited to be successful in the NFL behind our stellar OL ...lol
I am not going to pretend I know a ton about Howard,and let’s face it. He hasn’t thrown a NFL pass yet. So he’s a mystery so far to me. From his interviews,I love his attitude. I’ve watched Ty Simpson in several games this season. I simply don’t get any hype about him. Sure,he makes the odd great throw. As most QB’s do. But he’s so inconsistent. He has no feel for pressure. So many boneheaded decisions. There is no way I would consider him a top QB for us. One more game to watch him play against a top opponent.
He has a solid release and has had some solid games against good competition. I am not sure where that brings him in the grand spectrum but I am willing to bet he gets drafted higher than Howard. But then again I thought Howard should have been drafted higher than he was.
He definitely is a prospect that I see some good yet have some questions. Which is the case for pretty much this entire draft class.
Agreed,they’ve had a tough schedule. He’s shown lots of heart. So many games they could have pulled ahead more and he would make bad decisions. I don’t always mean interceptions. He’s just so inconsistent. He’s young and can improve. Like I said ,next game will watch closely. So far though,not the guy I would draft.
I actually thought of "who" he's reminded me of these past 4 games...
I was taking my morning bio break, I'll have you know, and BOOM!!! It hit me!!!
Kenny Pickett.
You're welcome...
Kenny fooled me a bit more. As many did,I figured they would draft a QB that year,and I thought it would be KP. So I watched quite a few of Pitts games as he was on the hype train. Say what you want about him,he had a magical last season. He made the throws,made the comebacks,completion %,TD’s etc. But of course the level of competition is not the same. I was chocked when he never played the bowl game.
Just comes down to this to me. Besides being a shiny newer prospect what would distinguish any of these guys over Howard. I realize Bama won last night but Simpson played like *** for most of that game.
