I never once said sign a big name lol. Von Miller is a big name lol. I’m certainly not saying do that. Yall spent your money last year on Cowboys players the Cowboys didn’t want. As a Cowboy fan I love it. As a NFL fan I don’t get it. I liked the Frankie Luvu signing and Wagner.
I think the goal is to sign guys hungry. Like a Zack Baun or a Frankie Luvu….free agency is full of them you just gotta have the department to find them.
All I’m saying is signing 35 year olds hasn’t been proven to work but hell who knows maybe Commsnders trying to reinvent the wheel. Maybe it will work.
I wasn’t saying he was in his prime. I was saying he is loving DC like someone who never lived in the DMV area before who is either a young newly drafted athlete or just starting out in their career.
It’s like being a fat kid in a candy store and he is experiencing something he probably never experienced before considering the DMV area isn’t equivalent to some of those other places (outside of LA maybe) he played in when it comes to doing things outside of football.
Got you….Von a good dude I’ve met him a few times he always doing a lot of stuff in the city for the community. He’s done it all. Won rings, got paid, dominated….he just doing a victory lap now lol.
Yeah, y'all got something with him and the rest of the teams in y'all division should be very afraid.He's one of the best blitz pickup running backs in the game.
Damn, y'all got some nice young RB's that would be good in the future.Rookie Johnson from Iowa looks good too. Much faster than Najee Harris
Yeah, next year's draft gonna be dep with talent.Will help the next young QB out tremendously.
That's what they are saying. But you never know. 9 of them muthafuckas could be busts.
Yeah, so, you still gotta do your due diligence regardless.That's what they are saying. But you never know. 9 of them muthafuckas could be busts.
I'd like the Steelers to look at Howard. I actually think he could be the next franchise guy if they give him a legit chance next year.
I have to check these players out who could be in next year's draft.I'd like the Steelers to look at Howard. I actually think he could be the next franchise guy if they give him a legit chance next year.
Yeah, they say a lot of talented QB's. No one knpws for sure these guys are gonna pan out.
Yup, it's always a hit or miss.Yeah, they say a lot of talented QB's. No one knpws for sure these guys are gonna pan out.
Keldon was good asf in college.Rookie Johnson from Iowa looks good too. Much faster than Najee Harris
Reminded me of a slightly better Bell
I agree with Howard.I'd like the Steelers to look at Howard. I actually think he could be the next franchise guy if they give him a legit chance next year.
Had his moment at Ohio State.

Steelers Land Rising QB in Latest Way-Too-Early 2026 Mock Draft

CBS Sports’ Ryan Wilson has the Pittsburgh Steelers landing Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza in his latest way-too-early 2026 NFL mock draft. Mendoza is a rising QB in this year’s class.
“Pocket passer but not a statue; he buys time with subtle pocket movements, excels off-platform and when needed, can stride out in open field.” Wilson wrote. “Will get through reads while hanging in a pocket closing in around him. Consistently played with pressure in his face, yet consistently stood tall in the pocket and delivered strikes to all three levels on time and accurately. Ball consistently comes out on time and with touch/accuracy to all three levels. Good feel for pocket pressure, can climb with eyes downfield and deliver accurately off-platform.”

Mendoza spent his first three seasons at California with the Golden Bears, where he posted over 3,000 passing yards in a breakout redshirt sophomore campaign. This past offseason, he entered the transfer portal and ultimately chose to take his talents to Indiana, where he’ll suit up for the Hoosiers this fall. Standing at 6-foot-5 and 225 pounds with a strong arm, Mendoza fits the mold of a traditional pocket passer but also brings underrated athleticism to the position.
Mendoza was Derrick Bell of Steelers Now’s No. 1 QB coming out of early summer scouting.
“The physical tools are intriguing: he’s got good size and a howitzer for an arm, but his advanced feel for the game is what makes him most unique amongst his peers,” Bell wrote. “So many of his best reps last season came in high-leverage situations with a less than stellar supporting cast. He’s accurate, aspires to play on-time football from the pocket, all while still being athletic enough for the next level.
“There’s obviously some projection baked in here with this sort of outlook. He needs to cut down on some of the negative plays, but you’d rather a young player try things and work through mistakes rather than have to be coaxed into aggressiveness down the line. Even if it requires a trade up into the top ten, the Steelers cannot afford to wait any longer to make a splash at the sport’s most important position. No more half measures! With the NFL Draft in their own backyard, this has a chance to be one of the more iconic moments in recent memory.”
Lance Zierlein of NFL.com projects the Steelers to have four compensatory picks in the 2026 NFL Draft — one in Round 3, one in Round 4, one in Round 5 and one in Round 6. In total, the Steelers are expected to have 12 picks.

The 2026 NFL Draft class is absolutely loaded with talent. The class could include Texas’ Arch Manning, Penn State’s Drew Allar, South Carolina’s LaNorris Sellers, LSU’s Garrett Nussmeier, Clemson’s Cade Klubnik, Arizona State’s Sam Leavitt, UCLA’s Nico Iamaleava, Oregon’s Dante Moore and Miami’s Carson Beck.
The loaded crop of quarterbacks in 2026 is good news for the Steelers, as they are in desperate need of a franchise QB. The extra picks also give general manager Omar Khan ammunition to trade up in the
The older vets are more about Culture changers than anything else.
Can’t wait to see him play.
He doing that shit against the Titans defense at practice he better not be throwing across his body only person get away with that is Mahomes lol.
It hit different when you got Ray Lewis telling you that you ain’t shit. 
Ravens been quiet as shit. Probably how they like it.
What what the GM thinking of making him wait is he asking for Jefferson money? As a Cowboy fan who’s seen this every offseason why cause a distraction and have this dude rusty before the season start? Lamb said he regretted that shit with how rusty he was but it wasn’t his fault IMO they knew the number was 34 or 35….and played around.
Based on history maybe one of them dudes might be good lol. They do that “deepest position in the draft” shit and you see them dudes flop.That's what they are saying. But you never know. 9 of them muthafuckas could be busts.
Look at these top 10 lists every year….Jayden the newest added to that list but before him you probably get…..maybe Herbert or Hurts and then before that be like Josh or Lamar. All those years of 1st round picks….Kylar, Trevor, Tua….meanwhile Brock Purdy the last pick in the draft will make those lists before them. That QB position is tough.
