Earlier in the offseason, I took a stats-based deep dive into the NFL quarterbacks who the Pittsburgh Steelers could potentially be targeting as their starting quarterback in 2025. As we get closer to the NFL draft at the end of the month, the majority of those options are off the table. The likely answer for a veteran quarterback is Aaron Rodgers, but he still has not signed with the Steelers.
While they wait for Rodgers, the Steelers have been evaluating potential college quarterback targets in the upcoming NFL draft. So, I’m using some of those same philosophical parameters laid out in that original article and taking a look at the rookie quarterbacks who the Steelers have either looked at or have been linked to in other ways.
