If they don't sign a WR in FA, I'd take two WRs with the first 3 picks.

Hi Gerry-  For all the doubters out there remind us all if the whiz kid offensive mind has landed an upgraded job in the NFL?
Gerry Dulac
1:46
And you are referring to...???
58-75-39

Would the Steelers ever start the season with Will Howard as the back up QB instead of Mason? Since he has never even had one snap in a NFL game?
Gerry Dulac
1:46
Maybe. Depends what they would see from him in the preseason. And depends who would be the starter
The Dude
1:47
Let’s pretend Gerry D just got hired as general manager of the Steelers. Let’s assume Aaron isn’t coming back for another year. And let’s assume Gerry is smart enough not to use a draft pick the first two days. Who is Gerry going after for next year’s qb?
Gerry Dulac
1:47
Gerry isn't smart enough to NOT use a draft choice on the first two days.
Yates
1:47
Who will the Steelers make available to the media at the combine?
Gerry Dulac
1:48
The GM is scheduled as of right now
Jeff
1:48
No matter the qb this year, don't we actually have a better shot at a playoff win with the change in coaches and their staff?
Gerry Dulac
1:48
That's TBD.
Yates
1:48
How high in the draft would you support an add to the DL?
Gerry Dulac
1:49
No higher than second, no later than fourth

Did Tomlin set the QB position back a few years by having Canada as the OC?
Gerry Dulac
1:50
I don't know, Mason sure performed well in those final three games under Canada
Nick Danger
1:50
Going back to the play that B Jones was injured...Wasn't it a bit of a cheap shot? If I remember correctly, the DL tried to pull his head off. Strange that it's never been mentioned, no?
Gerry Dulac
1:51
No, I don't think so at all. I thought it was more of a freak, awkward accident. I don't think the Steelers thought it was cheap at all, at least, I never heard that they did.
Yates
1:51
Was 24 the most improved player this past year?
Gerry Dulac
1:52
He was one of them, but only after a rough start to the season
Bill in LA
1:52
Will 20 mostly new coaches move this team from mediocre to competitive?
Gerry Dulac
1:53
Five playoff appears in the past six years is not mediocre.
Yates
1:53
Gerry-  This might be a hard question to answer due to sample size but how do you view 20’d potential today as compared to the day he was drafted?
Gerry Dulac
1:54
I don't think the evaluation of his potential has changed. I am willing -- and, more important, they are too -- to see what happens this season.
MikeinCLT

Gerry, outside of Limas Sweed who should the Steelers target at WR in free agency?
Gerry Dulac
1:56
Someone with Sweed's size and speed, but someone who can actually catch the ball, someone who can make the extraordinary catch look simple rather than trying to make the simple catch look extraordinary.
Big Mike
1:56
Hey Gerry-  Do coaches need to pass physicals before being hired, specifically head coaches?  I am genuinely curious as I think it is very important to have a healthy coach and I am not trying to mock MM's unhealthy appearance.  Please let me know your thoughts.
Gerry Dulac
1:58
Well, I think because you asked that question I think you are taking a swipe at McCarthy's size. But Andy Reid's not exactly fit for a marathon, either. And Mike Tomlin wasn't getting any smaller.
Seattle Art
1:58
Hi Gerry, I understand the competitive desire to win now but if the Steelers bring back AR, won’t they be wasting another year of QB development with Howard and any other potential draft piick? Sometimes you have to get worse before you can get better.
Gerry Dulac
1:58
I hear ya, and I don't disagree. This cycle has to stop, but they know that.
BP Bill
1:59
Hi Gerry! Do you think that the criticism from Ben's teammates will knock him off 1st ballot HOF?
Gerry Dulac
2:00
No, not when you consider the source of those ridiculous comments. And not when you consider the number of his former teammates who threw water on those ridiculous comments.
George T
2:00
Gerry, do you JPJ set out or set in this summer and fall till he get a new contract that will pay him top CB money.
Gerry Dulac
2:01
I don't think he has any leverage to do that
Clarence Snowshoe
2:01
Gerry, if Rodgers does not return, which free agent QB most fits McCarthy’s style?
Gerry Dulac
2:01
MM likes pure passers, so whoever fits that mold -- if they go that route.
Andy Carnegie
2:02
Would trading a 2nd round pick for Mac Jones be something the Steelers could entertain?  Or a 3rd and a 5th?  I think Mac Jones would be a very good starter along the lines of Darnold.  He had a terrible sophomore season with defensive coach Matt Patricia as his OC (yes, that's correct).  He's been decent since he left the Pats.  Could be a good fit for the Steelers.
Gerry Dulac
2:02
I sure hope not.
Gary Bears
2:02
I'm not surprised that the Bears are moving out of Chicago.  Who you vote for matters and the way they mis-manage funds matters more, Oakland just went thru the same situation with 3 sports teams being forced to leave.  Do you think we will ever get to the point where the Steelers will be forced out of town when trying to build a new stadium?  Politics have shifted progressive in this town as well and I am nervous.
Gerry Dulac
2:03
Don't be. If they move out of town, which has never been their mindset, it will be because they want to, not because they are told to.
No Mas. No bueno.
2:03
Anyone else skip it entirely?
