00:00Would the Steelers pay $20 million for Kirk Cousins in a trade?

00:05Scott, here's the situation.

00:07They're a team to watch if they do not get Dart or Sanders in the first two rounds, Scott.

00:11If they don't get their guy, I don't care what they say about Mason Rudolph.

00:15Mason Rudolph is not a 17-game starter plus playoffs, okay?

00:19If you want to be a playoff team, okay, I could tell you from how they feel

00:25from talking to people with the Steelers, they love their roster.

00:28This is one of the better rosters they've put together in years,

00:30but they don't have a quarterback.

00:32They don't have a quarterback.

00:34And it didn't work out, obviously, at least to this point with Aaron Rodgers.

00:38Now, yes, that situation is still open, okay?

00:43So let me ask you about Sanders.

00:46As you've seen him literally be dragged through the mud over the last 48 hours,

00:52people bashing him like he's an idiot

00:55and that he's a horrible quarterback and he did horrible in interviews

01:00and no one said one good word about him.

01:03And his dad's not sticking up for him, which is shocking to me.

01:07Do they still prefer that guy, the Steelers, over Milrow,

01:11a guy that's never had a problem ever

01:13and that actually played in monster games that they said over and over that they liked?

01:18They're going to take this potential problem.

01:21This guy's so cocky and everyone says he's a moron

01:24and they're going to take him over this kid that, honestly,

01:27that's what people are saying about it.

01:28You watch this stuff.

01:31All right.

01:31Let me unpack.

01:33That's a lot to unpack.

01:34I'm going to explain everything you just said.

01:36First of all, if Aaron Rodgers,

01:38and Rodgers has not given a timeline to be clear here,

01:41they still want him, okay?

01:42But let's put him to the side, okay?

01:44Let's say he doesn't play for him.

01:45He retires, right?

01:46He's not playing for them.

01:47Okay.

01:47Just hear me out here.

01:48They need an answer, okay, for the future quarterback.

01:51So Rodgers has nothing to do with him getting a young quarterback.

01:53If Rodgers said tomorrow, I want to play for you guys, that's done.

01:57That doesn't change the fact that they need a future quarterback position.

01:59Now, Jalen Milrow, okay?

02:01You talked about Milrow.

02:02He's a project.

02:03Shadur Sanders is ready to play.

02:05The knock on Sanders, Scott, you asked that question.

02:08I'll explain that to you right now.

02:10Arm strength, not great, okay?

02:11Not a great athlete.

02:13But he's a pocket passer and he's an accurate passer.

02:15He is a late first round, early second round player, okay?

02:19I know plenty of teams that don't have first round grades on him.

02:22I told you last year, right here on SportsGrid, Bo Nix had plenty of second and third round grades.

02:27But there were a couple teams that liked him in back of the first round.

02:31One of them was the Denver Broncos, and I got to give them credit.

02:34To this point, they're right.

02:36Teams get quarterbacks wrong all the time.

02:37You know that, Scott.

02:39You've been covering this business for a long time.

02:40Shadur Sanders is a nice college quarterback who projects well as the son of a coach and a player.

02:46But he doesn't wow anyone.

02:47That's what people have a problem with.

02:49There's nothing wow about his game.

02:51Cam Ward is a wow quarterback.

02:54Arm strength and ability.

02:55Cam Ward is a much better talent than Shadur Sanders.

02:58That's the bottom line.

02:59Yeah, you got that right.

03:00I was wowed.

03:00I said wow when he lost to Georgia Tech.

03:03I said wow when he lost to Syracuse.

03:05And then I said wow when he lost the bowl game to Iowa State.

03:08Except I added a bunch of swear words to all of those wows.
