The quarterback situation is what gets headlines. It should be Pickett's job before too long.
He'll have to play well to hold off a first-round pick. Mitchell Trubisky, signed in March, might begin the season ahead of Pickett. “We probably spent about 15 seconds on the clock after New Orleans made that pick,” Tomlin said, according to Steelers Now. It was a bad quarterback class, but Pickett was the top option in the Steelers' minds. He was the only quarterback drafted in the first round, and no other quarterback went in the second round. They were happy to draft Kenny Pickett, who played for the University of Pittsburgh. Now they're hoping to have a Joe Montana/Steve Young, Brett Favre/Aaron Rodgers, Peyton Manning/Andrew Luck transition. He had a great career, but he struggled badly at the end.

Roethlisberger also had the lowest Pro Football Focus grade of all 37 qualified QBs. His average depth of target was 7.1, second-lowest among all regular quarterbacks ( Jared Goff was 6.8). He was so worried about getting hit behind a bad offensive line that his top priority was getting rid of the ball fast. For the last part of 2020 and all of 2021, Roethlisberger was not very good. The truth about the 2022 Steelers is they shouldn't miss their quarterback much. Usually when a future Hall of Fame quarterback retires, there's fear of a big drop.
