Heitritter: Teams Targeting QB Hendon Hooker Will Likely Be Calling The Steelers On Draft Day

The NFL is a quarterback-driven league, meaning that if you don’t have one, you need to be doing everything in your power as a franchise to find and secure one you think can be the guy to lead your team to the playoffs and contend for championships.

The Pittsburgh Steelers hope to have found their future franchise QB in last year’s draft, selecting Pitt QB Kenny Pickett with the 20th overall pick. After a rough start, Pickett managed to string together a 7-2 record down the stretch, showcasing the leadership and execution to make must-have plays in the waiting moments of games to secure victory.
