It's April 22nd, I'm Cory with the story, and this is NFL News Today, your AI-powered football briefing. The NFL Draft hits Pittsburgh in less than 24 hours, and the cities lit up with excitement. But the Steelers still got no lock on their quarterback spot for next season, since Aaron Rogers hasn't committed to a second year with the team. Steelers legend Jerome Betis, a Hall of Famer, dropped some real talk ahead of the draft. He cool with chasing Rogers right now, but pushes for grabbing a quarterback in the later rounds to build for the long game. Betis figures developing that guy could solve their yearly QB headaches, especially heading into the 2027 draft. The teams already hosted visits from mid-round prospects like Carson Beck and Drew Aller, showing their thinking ahead. He'd love to see Pittsburgh trade up five or six spots early if a top offensive lineman's in play, though those studs might slip away fast. That line needs beef to protect whoever's slinging it. With 12 picks, the most ammo in the league, the Steelers can wheel and deal to shake things

up this weekend. Keep an eye on how they play it.
