A lot of attention is being paid to Mason Rudolph, who has been pegged as a potential candidate to be the successor at the quarterback position. The Pittsburgh Steelers made the decision to use a third-round pick on him last season because they viewed him as a player with first-round talent, despite the lack of immediate need.
Rudolph spent his rookie season as the third-string quarterback, however, never dressing for a game during the regular season, and that was thanks to Joshua Dobbs, the quarterback that the team drafted in the fourth round a year before in 2017.
