00:00pittsburgh steelers were on the clock during our commercial break with the 21st overall pick that
00:06pick is in in spoiler alert it is not a quarterback at number 21 overall the steelers have selected
00:14defensive tackle derrick harman out of oregon so let's start with that very idea not a qb
00:22not shador sanders not jackson dart lisi it's the interior d lineman derrick harman out of oregon
00:30what do you make of the steelers decision here with the 21st overall selection i think it's
00:34terrible and i told you this again i think mike tomlin and the organization put themselves in
00:39this position a couple of years ago when they when they got justin fields and russell wilson and
00:44couldn't work out the quarterback situation they say they're happy with mason rudolph oh that's all
00:49well and good to say it because he got you to a playoff game a couple of years ago but you're
00:53supposed to be competing not just with cincinnati and baltimore in the division you're supposed to
00:58be elevating and progressing year after year after year to challenge for an afc championship and
01:04derrick harman doesn't bring you any closer than that i understand maybe cam hayward is at the end
01:09of his career you know regressing slightly and he helped solidify that defensive front but he does
01:15this does nothing to make them challenge for an afc championship it doesn't make them a better
01:21football team and waiting for aaron rogers and trying to say we'll glue it together with smoke
01:27and mirrors is just you know it's it's just all right it's horrible i'm sorry just terrible decision
01:33overall look i'm gonna let it get over to those guys i'll just add this pittsburgh doesn't even have
01:38a round two pick so this team is now rogers or boss awesome awesome 10 days ago he's like i'm
01:45probably gonna retire awesome okay and so kev to your point earlier nor sanders was not necessarily
01:52on a slide until we got around this spot because his draft position prop was 21 and a hook the team
01:59that was favored to select sanders at a minus 150 number entering the draft was the pittsburgh
02:05steelers so blue and cap what does that mean sanders where might he go if at all in this opening
02:12round all right i'll get to my thoughts on my steelers pick in a minute but let's take a look
02:16at the uh the board now shadour sanders is past 21 we thought the steelers could be that landing spot
02:22i personally never thought they were going to be in on it you and i talked about this i did not think
02:27the steelers were going to go with shadour right here i think kevin's right to criticize that they're
02:31just kind of waiting on the aaron rogers sweepstakes but i would say that another veteran
02:36option for them they still have a lot of cap space while i don't know that kirk cousins is somebody
02:41they want to be in business with i'm frankly surprised during the aaron rogers sweepstakes
02:45i think there's a possibility that the steelers could use cousins as a fallback option but let's
02:50get back to your door mike yes they have interest in keep going yeah let's get back to the shadour
02:54jackson dart potential sweepstakes now we start to look at those teams that are at the beginning at
02:59the beginning of round two the browns and the giants the browns with those two picks
03:03at 33 and 36 are they the team that can move back up and then we're saying at the end of the night
03:09wow the browns ended up with a quarterback and a defensive lineman that they like before the draft
03:14what did we say in our pre-show that basically shadour sanders and jackson dart are late first round
03:19early second round picks now we know that cleveland has two second rounders they could do kind of what
03:25they want they could trade up to make sure they secure one of those two quarterbacks or they could
03:29wait but you have to compete with the giants you know for who a team that obviously is is looking
03:36for a young guy at that position eventually uh but the bottom line is the steelers don't have that guy
03:41right now they're i just find it comical what would happen if rogers retires mason rudolph they could
03:47say whatever they want as i've talked to someone there privately you did a great job two years ago for
03:52four games we're talking about 17 games plus playoffs that's not going to work so that's why
03:58they have interest in kirk cousins but the money 35 million still fully guaranteed that's it's a
04:03non-starter for clubs by the way and that's dealers would have to end up paying much more of the
04:08is kirk cousins salary than they would want to in order to have somebody that's an upgrade from
04:12rudolph but they put themselves in this position i don't really mind the derrick harman pick uh from a
04:18team perspective and yes they don't have a second round pick but they do have dk
04:21metcalf now but if mason rudolph is the one throwing dk metcalf the ball doesn't really matter much
