Episode Details

The Pittsburgh Steelers are intensifying their pursuit of North Dakota State quarterback Cole Payton, hosting him for a pre-draft visit. This comes after welcoming Miami quarterback Carson Beck earlier in the week. Payton, a dual-threat lefty with good size, had a strong senior season, throwing for 2,719 yards and 16 touchdowns, while rushing for 777 yards and 13 scores. Despite needing work on his mechanics and arm strength, scouts see potential in his touch on passes and his ability to highlight his legs with designed runs. The Steelers recent visits and conversations at the scouting combine indicate theyre actively seeking quarterback help.
