Finally, mercifully, the quarterback refresh appears to be on the way for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Perhaps one year later than should have been the case, but so it often goes on the final gasp of Hall of Fame quarterbacks.

Not that Pittsburgh missed out on a whole lot during the whole great quarterback migration of 2021, which actually turned out to be a reboot of Matt Stafford Carson Wentz, then a caravan of mediocrity that didn't change much anywhere else.

If anything, the big loss for Pittsburgh last offseason is more of a what might have happened scenario involving Mac Jones.

Had Ben Rothisberger not taken a pay cut to return last March, maybe the Steelers work out Jones, fall in love with them, and make the rare draft a move to secure their next cornerstone.

Of course, that didn't happen.

Leaving Pittsburgh where it is now in the muddled middle with a roster that's pretty darn good except for the fact that there's a glaring hole at the most important position in NFL.

And in a slim picking year for draft football quarterbacks too.

That's not necessarily a disaster for Pittsburgh, but also not great either.

Largely because this is a team good enough to be some version of 9 and 8 or 8 and 9 for the foreseeable future, which is usually just good enough to take you out of the running for upper echelon quarterbacks in every draft.

That leaves the Steelers with a few choices.

Among them, go big and bold for a win now veteran starter, draft and groom as part of an extended rebuild, or fish around for a middling starter who hopefully just needs a cheer.

To put all those options in terms of what happened in 2021, think of it this way.

The Steelers could be the Los Angeles Rams dealing for Matt Stafford.

They could be the New England Patriots drafting Mac Jones.

Or they could be like the Carolina Panthers or Denver Broncos dealing for the likes of Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater.

The winner in that scenario is easy except that it really isn't.
