PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers wasted no time signing a quarterback in the first wave of free agency, but the recent travels of their brain trust suggest they might make another splash at the position.
Coach Mike Tomlin and general manager Kevin Colbert are in the middle of a quarterback pro day tour de force, zig-zagging the East Coast and Deep South to evaluate the next batch of signal callers available in next month’s draft.
“It’s a quality class,” Colbert said at the NFL combine. “It might not be the number of players at that position that there have been in the past, but it’s certainly good quality, and there’s going to be starting NFL quarterbacks coming out of this class for sure.
