NFL Network Panel Warns Kenny Pickett Of Rookie Pitfalls, Still Believe He’ll Start Week One

Bucky Brooks knows what it’s like to be a wide-eyed rookie. Not as a quarterback but it’s fair to assume the jump there is ten-fold compared to most other positions. Appearing on NFL Network earlier Tuesday, Brooks, along with the rest of the NFLN panel, warned Pittsburgh Steelers’ first round pick Kenny Pickett of what’s in store for him this season.

“Players are looking at Kenny Pickett as a scout though I’m looking at him in comparison to the other quarterbacks that are in the room because the draft coming in only gives you pole position,” Brooks said.
