Summary

Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast. The Pittsburgh Steelers made Kenny Pickett their first round pick and confirmed he was their QB1 all along. But what made Pickett so valuable to them? The answer is in the tape, and in his story as a leader at Pitt. His arm strength may be in question, but Pickett was the most accurate, the best decision maker, with the best quarterback vision and the best leadership qualities of the NFL Draft class, even over Malik Willis. The question will be if Pickett can overcome his lack of elite arm strength and/or speed, but Mike Tomlin and Kevin Colbert seem confident he's the guy for the Steelers' future. Meanwhile, day 2 is about to start in the NFL Draft and with quarterback out of the way, the Steelers have to get right back to work on skill players. Should they go wide receiver with players like Skyy Moore, George Pickens, Wan'Dale Robinson, Alec Pierce, Christian Watkins and John Metchie III still available? Or should they go defense with Andrew Booth Jr., Jaquan Brisker and Travis Jones still on the board?
