Regardless of whayt happens with Aaron Rodgers, the Pittsburgh Steelers could be in the QB market come round one of the NFL draft. 

A lot of names have been floated as candidates, but there is only one that makes a lot of sense according to insiders

That would be Shedeur Sanders, who would fit like a glove in the Steelers organization according to Greg Jennings…


Shedeur Sanders a perfect fit for Steelers? 

"Culture-wise, stability, this would be an ideal situation"" Jennings said recently on FS1's First Things First. "I know some might question, Well, what have the Steelers been able to do when they get quarterbacks? They haven't blossomed their quarterback picks as of late?…

"…However, Shedeur, if he's able to start, you want him to start, he would be starting with great weapons with what they have currently as it stands. George Pickens on one side, DK Metcalf; you've got a solid running game. You've got some veteran leadership with the offensive line. You have a culture that understands how to win. They just haven't won in most meaningful football games."

Shedeur Sanders is a very polarizing player. He's as tough as nails, accurate, and can distribute the ball to all areas of the field. He has an energy that his teammates will gravitate towards and he is the son of one of the greatest players to ever play in the NFL.

He also has no elite trait. He doesn't wow you with his arm, is not overly athletic, and projects to be a relatively stationary target in the pocket. Not to mention he has rubbed more than a few people and teams the wrong way during his collegiate tenure and pre-draft process.

But if there was ever a quarterback who made sense for the Steelers. It's Sanders. He has the DNA, pedigree, and bloodline that a coach like Mike Tomlin covets. We have already seen more than a few mock drafts put him in the Black and Gold, and if shakes out the way many think, it's a real possibility.
