This week's edition of the PFR mailbag looks at questions about the upcoming quarterback decision teams face, the Steelers' outlook with a new head coach in place, the Eagles' OC position and the potential implications of the Seahawks' moves from last offseason.
Jose asks:
With Dante Moore going back to Oregon and no other first-round caliber QB available besides [Fernando] Mendoza, should a QB-needy team go after a backup that had a good year like Malik Willis, Mac Jones or even Davis Mills? Possibly pair them with a Day 2 pick and let them battle for the starting job in training camp. If it doesn't work out, they will pick high in what is expected to be a significantly stronger class next year.
Quarterbacks like the ones you mentioned were already going to be a focal point of free agency with so few other options on the market. Daniel Jones is the one major exception, but like everyone else I expect him to stay with the Colts.
I hope the Rogers/Steelers love affair has run its course.
I hope you are right. But artie doesn’t believe in divorce.
We’re suddenly hearing Kyler Murray rumors here in Pittsburgh. Jeez. All things considered, I think I’d rather have Rodgers back if that’s the choice.
I do hope McCarthy can work his magic with Rudolph and Howard. Seems like the best option right now
Yea wash i agree. Murray should of stuck to his baseball career. And for God’s sake I hope Rodgers just disappears. Got to go with Howard. And from what I understand McCarthy is hiring good assistants. Something tomlin wouldn’t do. Everyone blamed the front office for not paying more money for good assistants under tomlin. Now its coming out that tomlin didn’t want a lot of assistant coaches. He was power hungry. And it showed with his lack of development of key players. Namely a qb. Pickett, Rudolph.
