WTF are we doing?

[SteelerInLebanon]

A smart and proactive FO would be adding more assets to the position whether the should be pastured geriatric QB returns or not

Anything less is like going into a season with a WR2 as your only receiving threat. What team could ever be that stupid?

Agreed, BUT there are only 3 roster spots available in all reality for a QB, Mason will in all likelihood be the backup for gameday early on. Unless you are willing to run with Howard as the 2 and a rookie as the three it might not make sense to draft a guy this year if Rodger’s is the guy.

They had a plan B though.

How do we know they're working on a plan B?

I can't find the article now, but they talked to four QB's at the combine, have brought in two for top 30 visits (for some reason the list is much tighter lipped this year and only 14 so far have been announced), and they are also high on Howard. They've talked about a lot of options other than Rodgers. It's just a much different feeling this year IMO. I'll keep looking for the article, but I know it talked about Howard and other Vet QB's. Because even if Rodgers retires or signs elsewhere, a VET QB is more than likely going to be signed. McCarthy doesn't seem to impressed with Rudolph...

Yes SIR, when MM was talking QBs he didn’t mention or talk much on Rudy. It was like he’s here if we need, but no loyalty if we find better.

I agree on finding better, a vet QB (possibly Rodgers.

They are very high on Howard and may go #2 to start year with him, eventually Rodgers get sat or hurt.

QB 3 could be a draft pick.

Possible deep vet back up stashed on PS, or interchanged with drafted QB.

Any body have any ideas as to bringing in McCarthy from the Vikings? He’s a big tuff kid that might be salvageable. Fat Mike is suppose to be a qb guru and our new OC coached with viks so has some familiarity with the kid. Seems like win win to bring him for a looksie. You must have a big strong arm, you must be able to move your feet and then reset them and make an accurate throw… this he does better than Howard que up Ohio state vs Michigan. We are going to have to take a few chances on guys Zack Wilson ex jet another strong arm kid worth taking a look at, if we are going to get a desent qb! We aren’t going drafting in the top 10 any time soon… so if fat Mike can’t reablitate one of these guys then what the hell did we sign him for? He’s proven the game has passed him by!! That can’t be why we brought him in, that we know! That's a fact Jack!! get couple of these guys send them all out to the north 40 with a few WRs don’t come back till you’ve got a passing game!!!

Rooney has turned this into Dancing with the stars ( washed up stars). Bring in known names, let them sing and dance. People watch. Popcorn is sold. Its the circus in Pittsburgh. Right around the corner to see the bearded lady.

Dancing with the QBs: Mitch, KFP, DangeRuss, Justin dontthrowitinthemiddleofthe Fields and the granddaddy of them all, getting ready for his second rodeo in this town, Ayahuasca A-Ron.

This! I believe they will sit on their third to whoever falls or use it to move up. After Mendoza who knows. So they go to camp with most likely Rogers, Howard, Rudolph and the draft pick. If Howard can handle QB2 they turf Rudolph.
