If Steelers fans think they saw a preview of what it looks like Sunday night — when the first half of ain the AFC wild-card round of the playoffs ended with fewer net passing yards than Ben Roethlisberger dropbacks — they haven’t seen anything yet.
The Steelers made nine draft picks in 2021 — after the final six games revealed just how close to the end of the line Roethlisberger was — and didn’t use one on a quarterback. The Steelers sat idly by and let the last of five first-round quarterbacks, Mac Jones, slip into the hands of the rival Patriots at pick No. 15 while settling for running back Najee Harris at No. 24.
Either way, the Steelers could head into free agency with a quarterback depth chart of one: Mason Rudolph. Both Dwayne Haskins — a first-round bust of Washington’s in 2019 — and Josh Dobbs are free agents. That trio of Roethlisberger backups is 8-14-1 combined starting NFL games, anyway.
