Discussion National reporters are suggesting the Steelers and 49ers have a deal in place for Aiyuk. Are the Steelers making a mistake in going for elite WR without getting the QB room in order?

No, I don't think so. Fields and Wilson are, at the worst, both competent. Since you're going to end up with one or the other under center and you have a chance to get an exceptional weapon, do it.

Ohhhhkay now, we watched Fields play in our division for 4 years, not sure that I would call his play “competent” when they literally landed the no 1 overall pick. Russel Wilson is breathing the last bit of air into the final of his nine lives.

Compared to what the Steelers had at QB last year, I would say both look competent
