About this episode

This episode evaluates Pittsburgh's need for quarterbacks and discusses rookie ILB prospects while critiquing the team's handling of their QB situation.

On this episode of Steelers Central, we'll evaluate Pittsburgh's need for shot callers on both sides of the ball starting with five rookie ILB prospects. First, we'll look at the most well-rounded of the bunch, and arguably the best run stuffer out in the class out of Georgia, a splash play sideline-sideline playmaker out of Texas, a scrappy undersized field general out of Texas Tech, an edge rusher turned off-ball menace out of LSU, and a rising LB/S hybrid out of Pittsburgh. Then I'll unleash on the Steelers yet again botched handling of the ever-revolving QB situation giving all the leverage to a 43-year-old QB, becoming all to common. Listen to my take on the current situation, how it should have been handled, and the Steelers options going forward. 0:00-10:18 Georgia ILB CJ Allen 10:19-19:05 Texas ILB Anthony Hill 19:06-27:34 Texas Tech ILB Jacob Rodriguez 27:35-34:58 LSU ILB Harold Perkins 34:59-43:15 Pittsburgh ILB Kyle Louis 43:16-53:26 Waiting on Rodgers
