Could the Pittsburgh Steelers solve their quarterback problems with a massive splash in the offseason?
Next season, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is scheduled to be a free agent, and with the Cowboys and Prescott not making all that much progress so far, there is a real possibility that ends up happening.
Could the Steelers naturally be an option for a three-time Pro Bowler? It would not be that shocking because they have the cap room, but land Prescott would cost a fortune.
Yet, the Steelers have difficulties at quarterback, and at some point, the organization has to make a shot at the position that involves major risk.
Distinguished NFL analyst Mike Floroo may have identified the precise situation in which the Steelers sign Prescott for the upcoming offseason.
“Would they pay Dak market value? Here’s the thing about free agency — Dak could choose to go to a team and coach for less than market value.
After having Jerry Jones try to persuade him to take less than he could get elsewhere, Dak could stick it to the Cowboys by choosing to take less from one of their biggest AFC rivals,” Florio stated.
The Steelers are now holding out hope for both Justin Fields and Russell Wilson.
The Steelers might as well text one of those players if they turn out to be effective players.
Yet, Yet, if they end up in quarterback’s no-man land once again and have a draft pick too high to land a top rookie quarterback, the idea of adding Prescott makes a lot of sense for the Steelers.
