Do you think if Bruce Arians called Ben and asked him to come out of retirement this season to come play for the bucs would he would consider it?
Gerry Dulac
10:40
Yep

Good morning Gerry.  Relative to Ruduoph/Haskins. I have read comments from writers from two different media, that Haskins cannot read defenses.  Part of the reason Washington let him go, and he continued that with the Steelers, according to said writers.  Any comments?
Gerry Dulac
10:41
There's no doubt that was the case in Washington. And the Steelers are hoping by having him for a year and working with him that might change. It was a low risk on their part.
Why So Mad ?
10:41
Why are so many recently retired Steelers so bitter at the organization ? Is Art II that unlike his father and grandfather that ex-players want nothing to do with the team now ?
Gerry Dulac
10:42
It's not about the Rooneys.

Gerry why are you so sure Munchack wont be back? I understand he left to be closer to family but now that he's out of job in Denver it seems like the Steelers make the most sense if he wants to continue coaching.
Gerry Dulac
10:44
You are not considering three things: 1) the reason he went to Denver is for he and his wife to be close to their daughter and granddaughter...and they're still there. 2) maybe he doesn't like the makeup of the coaching staff; and 3) who said he wants to continue coaching.

Think Cross or Ekwonu are available at 20 ?
Gerry Dulac
10:45
Nope. LTs go real fast

What do you make of the reports that DJ expects 15M plus per year and is he worth it?  The on and off struggle with drops for me say no.
Gerry Dulac
10:46
They will pay JuJu before they pay DJ

Hi Gerry - when you say that Juju is a leader; you mean that he shows his teammate how to disrespect their opponents mid field logo, or how to increase their social media brand, or how to talk about how lousy their locker room is compared to the wonderful Cowboys?
Gerry Dulac
10:47
yeah that's why I mean

if you were to say what are the chances mike munchak comes back as o line coach? and if not him, do you have any other names? Do munchak and canada run the same run system?
Gerry Dulac
10:47
The chances of Munchak coming back might be more slim than Ben coming back.

Good morning Gerry! What are you more excited about? The upcoming NFL Draft or your first round of '22?
Gerry Dulac
10:51
Now what do you think??

I wonder if Pittsburgh is the only city that has an NFL franchise where the #3 and #4 QBs are the fans favorite?
Gerry Dulac
10:52
No, that's probably true in most cities where the QB isn't Mahomes, Burrow, Brady or Rodgers.

Hi Gerry, I think signing Ju Ju is a no-brainer. He’s young, good for 100 receptions, catches balls in traffic, etc. You can’t rely on third+ round picks to step right in with a new qb. You are 100% correct here.
Gerry Dulac
10:52
Pay the man!

I get it Steelers haven’t had a losing season in 15 years but at what point will they change their mindset in how they do things? Steelers haven’t won a meaningful game since 2017
Gerry Dulac
10:52
Not going to argue with you JG!

OL, ILB, DB & WR in that order to address in FA and draft.
Gerry Dulac
10:53
I believe you are not terribly myopic and mistaken

Hey Gerry - what do you think of Linderbaum in the 1st round - Green was consistently overwhelmed.
Gerry Dulac
10:54
I like him but don't see that happening at all.
AG8R
10:54
Do you believe the Steelers will start the year with Mason Rudolph as the starter?  If so, what would he have to do for them to make a commitment to him beyond next season; 3600 yards, 20 TDs 10 Ints, 63% completion?
Gerry Dulac
10:54
If I had to bet, yes.
BPOS

The relationship between Ben and Rudolf always seemed icy. Why was that?
Gerry Dulac
10:56
That's just your perception. Honestly, can't tell you if that were the case. I don't know
Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus

You can't contend for a title without a franchise QB. If they don't like Pickett or Willis or any other QB in the draft, so be it. But short of trading for Russell Wilson or Aaron Rodgers, unlikely and unwise at least with Rodgers, they're not legitimate contenders until they draft one in the first round.
Gerry Dulac
10:56
You might be right about that. Bradshaw and Ben are living proof
OK kids, that's all the time we have. Thanx for the questions.
