As the Aaron Rodgers drama continues, quarterback has become a popular topic for the Steelers and the 2025 NFL draft. We've seen multiple mock drafts with the Steelers selecting Ole Miss' Jaxson Dart but a few mocks have Colorado's Shedeur Sanders sliding and landing with the Steelers.
According to ESPN NFL draft analyst Matt Miller, Sanders should want to play for the Steelers and him making it that far would be a good thing for him and for Pittsburgh.
Miller points to the Steelers run game and offensive line as reasons Sanders should want to play in Pittsburgh. Those are both fairly arguable points but the run game is going to need a serious overhaul after Najee Harris left in free agency. He also notes that Sanders is a good fit with head coach Mike Tomlin.
If the Steelers do decide to target Sanders, they would almost certainly have to trade up ahead of the New Orleans Saints at a minimum. If the Steelers think he's the answer, it would be an expensive move to go up and get him.
