On April 25, Pittsburgh Steelers just grabbed Penn State quarterback Drew Aller with the 76 pick in the 2026 NFL draft. He's the fourth signal caller off the board this year, bringing his big arm and frame to a team, looking to build for the future. Aller put up solid numbers early on, throwing for nearly 6,000 yards, 49 touchdowns, and only 10 picks over his first two full seasons. As a starter, he helped push the Knitney Lions into the playoffs during his junior year, showing real promise out of Happy Valley. But his senior season in 2025 got cut short by a nasty ankle injury after just six games, where consistency and quick decisions were. Real issues, folks see him as a physical freak with size, speed, and arm strength that screams NFL starter potential. Scouts point out some rough edges though, like shaky footwork, spotty accuracy, and getting antsy in the pocket. He didn't even start playing quarterback until high school, so those instincts need reps fast since the pros don't baby you.

Steelers fans are hyped on his upside as a scrambler too, with 81 first downs on the ground over 35 starts. If a large sharpens of quick, he could turn into that franchise guy Pittsburgh's been chasing. Keep an eye on training camp. That wraps NFL news today. Brought to you with AI.
