4 realistic trade scenarios for Steelers to draft a top QB

With the Steelers showcasing a clear interest in a quarterback in this upcoming draft class, here are four trade scenarios that could land the team a passer.

The Steelers are obviously targeting a quarterback in this draft class, as they have been all over them in the pre-draft process. Unfortunately, picking at 20th overall in the first round will likely hamper their options in terms of landing a top prospect.

That said, I have researched and devised four potential trades that could land the team a quarterback in the first round.

Steelers have made their interest obvious

The Steelers have become an easy team to figure out when it comes to top picks. They make their intentions obvious leading up to the draft and rarely throw a curveball. Think about Najee Harris last season, or even Devin Bush from a few years before. Both had Pittsburgh’s handprints all over them before they ultimately wound up being taken by the team.

The Steelers are once again not hiding their interest heading up to the draft. With the pro day circuit well underway, the team has been spotted at just about every major quarterback’s pro day. Almost always the team selects a player from where they sent Mike Tomlin and Kevin Colbert to before the draft.

Unless the team is settling for a Georgia or Clemson product (college teams that have a wealth of pro talent and almost always see the Steelers scout heavily), quarterback is the primary target this year. In order to get one, the odds are you will have to move up. With that all said, here are four realistic trade scenarios for the Steelers to land a quarterback in this draft.
