Steelers Eyeing Beck, But Draft Risk Looms

0:00On April 22nd, Pittsburgh Steelers are eyeing Miami quarterback Carson Beck after a solid pre-draft showing, but grabbing him too soon could spell, trouble for the team. NFL Network's Tom Pulitzerow noted Beck boosted his stock big time, and in this thin quarterback class with only 13-15 first round. Towns overall, a needy squad might trade up late in the first round to get him on draft night. Things like the Steelers dig his massive college resume, 43 starts split between Powerhouse Georgia where he won a national title and Miami, which hit the title game this year. Beck put up strong numbers last season with 3,812 yards, 30 touchdowns and 12 picks, but his arm strength and mobility just don't scream elite NFL starter potential. Steelers brass sees him more as a reliable backup or long-term project on day 3, so if he slips that far, cool, but stay away from burning a high, pick or it'll haunt them for years.
