00:00 Think he's a yay over Kenny Pickett. I think if I'm picking a quarterback, I'm going Russell Wilson ahead of Kenny Pickett
00:06 Mason Rudolph entices me. I don't know how I feel about him
00:09 But I also don't think that he's ever gotten a fair shot in Pittsburgh
00:12 So who knows and I was a big critic of Mason Rudolph, but then it kind of he impressed me last year
00:17 I'm I'm going yay. I'll tell you this
00:20 This is another name that was tossed at me a lot this offseason Russell Wilson
00:25 The Steelers have some interest if he's cheap enough
00:27 They would like him to be in here and they think he's a leader enough and I laughed at that notion
00:32 But this is this guy this guy could come in here and develop a young quarterback
00:35 I was like, okay, whatever you want to say there pal
00:37 But they they have some interest
00:40 I think it makes the most sense for them outside of Justin Fields if he's super cheap and I'm talking third fourth round option for
00:45 Justin Fields
00:47 But I think Russ I think Russ is an upgrade over Kenny Pickett
00:50 I think he gives you more of a sure bet this season than Kenny Pickett
00:53 I think personally when it comes to all the nonsense and the reasons that people don't want Russell Wilson
00:59 Mike Tomlin is the coach to control those things and say hey, look at this is not gonna happen here
01:04 We're not going through this in Pittsburgh. So I think that makes a lot of sense in that aspect
01:09 I'm less worried about Russell Wilson coming in here and saying
01:12 But I'm gonna have my own office and I'm not gonna talk to anybody. We're not gonna bubble
01:16 But I don't think that's gonna happen under Mike Tomlin's roof. I think that works in his favor
01:22 Name to watch if he's as cheap as people are saying if he's the 1.2 million dollar league minimum
01:27 He's a hundred percent of yay
01:29 And I and if I'm the Pittsburgh Steelers, I'm at least making that phone call to say are you really worth this amount?
01:35 Are you really looking for this amount of money?
01:37 Because if you are maybe you could try and come win a Super Bowl with the Steelers and definitely an upgrade
01:42 Over the option they have now
