But it's a little bit of a tough sell for me the way last season ended.

So, you know, I think –

As far as investing in a quarterback that high, I don't know that I would.

But day three, I'd probably just throw a dart.

If it's the fourth round, sure, maybe you can tap into one of those guys and come up with some reasons why Aller, Cade Klubnick, Garrett Nussmeier didn't work out the way they were supposed to in 2025.

But I know this point has been made by a lot of people.

I don't know that any of them

really strike me as a huge upgrade over Will Howard based on what we saw from him his last year at Ohio State.

It would surprise me, but it is February 10th.

There's going to be a lot more that falls into place before anyone's draft card is written down or any names are called on the stage over at Akershire.

So, I mean, it's going to kind of depend on what the Steelers do at Akershire.

free agency.

But when you're talking about your first round draft pick, that's normally a player that you're not picking him just as a stopgap option or an immediate starter anywhere.

You've got to pick that at a spot where you feel like you need to replenish the depth for a long time to come.

So I'd actually be less surprised if they go D-line.

Again, I know that Derek Harmon was the guy last year, and I know that Y.A.

Black

is in the mix as well, and he's going into his second season.

But I think these last couple Super Bowls, the formula that we saw from the Seahawks and the Eagles a year ago, you can't have enough of those impact players up front, whether it's on the edge or

in the interior.
