Steelers: Avoid Simpson, Wait for 2027 QB Class

0:00It's March 31st. This is NFL News Today, your AI-powered source for everything in NFL. Pittsburgh Steelers fans, listen up. The team can't afford another Kenny Pickett disaster by grabbing Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson in the 20. 26 NFL Draft Simpson's the consensus number. Two quarterback prospect, but he's raw and linked to the Steelers as a potential first-round pick at a round. 21st overall. Just like with Pickett, its positional need over real talent in a week-class. That 2022 draft haunts them still. Pickett was a reach that bomb because the QB pool was thin, much like 2026, were only. Fernando Mendoza looks like a lock for round one. The impact? Drafting Simpson, whose game dropped off hard late last season, would repeat the same costly blunder, leaving the Steelers stuck without a franchise. Guy. If their will-how-or-trial run flops this year, holding off makes sense. The 2027 draft is loaded with elite quarterbacks, a way.

1:01Better bet than risking another bust. Bottom line. Patience pays here. The Steelers learn from Pickett, so why roll the dice on Simpson when gold's waiting next year?
