You cannot go in to 2026 thinking, okay, we're going to get X, Y, and Z out of this guy.
So where does β like if he's probably a second-round talent, I have the Steelers taking him at number 76 in the third round.
It's a crapshoot.
Somebody might gamble and take him at the end of the second.
He might be a guy like Peyton Wilson who falls to the comp pick round in the third round.
You just never know where these guys are in their recovery, but β
I really liked him against Pitt.
He was productive before that injury.
And I think third round, especially with three picks in the third round, that's a place where you could take a gamble, guys.
Can you imagine Point State Park?
Where are the people gathering?
Okay, can you imagine the chorus of boos that would come out if they took Ty Simpson in the first round?
I mean, people in Pittsburgh know their football, Joe.
Yeah, I mean, I had them taking one with, what, their 10th pick or whatever.
I mean, listen, I just think it would be like taking Kenny Pickett again if you're the Steelers.
Like you just tried that with a guy who might be a decent NFL starter, but we don't even know that.
And like you said, like Simpson hasn't β the resume just isn't there.
There's not a lot of proof that he can do it.
So I would be very lukewarm on that pick.
Shambles got his sixth year last night, right?
