2024 NFL Draft: 5 quarterbacks the Steelers should consider outside of the 1st round

At this point, I think we all must acknowledge the Pittsburgh Steelers must consider adding a quarterback in the 2024 NFL draft. If not as an immediate replacement for Kenny Pickett, a player to push him to improve and allow the Steelers to move on from Mitch Trubisky and feel no pressure to re-sign Mason Rudolph again.

The quarterback class in the 2024 NFL draft is deep in the first three rounds so it isn’t as if the Steelers would have to spend a first-round pick on a player who grades out comparably to Pickett in all areas.

Here are our five favorite quarterbacks outside of the first-round prospects we’d love to see the Steelers take a closer look at.
