Steelers' QB Drama: Drafting Simpson or Giving Howard a Shot?

0:00On April 22nd, Steelers fans, the quarterback drama, is heating up with the draft just days away. Aaron Rogers' future with the team is still up in the air, and if he bounces, Pittsburgh might grab a new signal caller early. CBS Sports analyst Mike Renner has Alabama's Ty Simpson going to the Steelers in the first round in his latest mock draft. That puts the spotlight on whether they really need one. Right now, without Rogers, they've got Will Howard and Mason Rudolph in the mix. Rudolph's a familiar face, but Howard's yet to prove himself as the top guy. Folks are split on this. Some say hand the keys to Howard and let him ball out under Coach Mike McCarthy, no draft pick needed. It's a solid argument since the kid deserves a shot. But others push back hard, saying, add fresh talent regardless. Simpson could outshine Howard or even Rudolph, giving the depth chart a real upgrade for the long haul. Bottom line, the Steelers' brass will know Rogers calls soon enough. Shaping their draft board, big time keep eyes peeled for those first round.
