Back to EpisodesSteelers' Future Hinges on Drafting Ty Simpson
Description
The Pittsburgh Steelers have been struggling to find a young quarterback to lead their franchise since Kenny Picketts departure. Despite trying out veterans like Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, and Aaron Rodgers, theyve only managed to stay afloat, not contend for the Super Bowl. ESPN analyst Marc Spears suggests that in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Steelers should draft Alabamas Ty Simpson at pick twenty if hes available. Simpsons impressive performances against Wisconsin and Vanderbilt last year have shown his potential. The Steelers defense is aging, and Rodgers, despite his experience, cant fix that. The team faces a crucial decision in this draft, as passing on Simpson could risk another year of mediocrity.
