@Mitch22823515 @AustinRBechtold In this class? After Simpson, almost anyone could be the third guy off the board. A guy with Payton’s profile absolutely could sneak in

Steelers insider @FarabaughFB thinks North Dakota State quarterback Cole Payton could be the third quarterback selected!
He thinks Payton could be as high as a 3rd or 4th round pick.
Wow!!

North Dakota State QB Cole Payton has a visit with the Steelers set up tomorrow.
He was at the Senior Bowl. Seemingly has a lot more buzz recently and is an ascending name.
Steelers now getting a closer look.

@FarabaughFB Is the bench press timed or is it just go until you’re gassed?
English
The Steelers have two pre-draft visitors today:
Illinois IDL James Thompson
Pitt ILB Kyle Louis
English
@FarabaughFB With the weak QB class this year do you think he makes it to pick 140?
English
Drew Allar’s workout is finished.
The arm strength was easy to see. Flashed some touch outside the numbers. Had some others that sailed or weren’t placed precisely.
Overall, a solid session.
Not gonna change any minds, but reaffirms what was on tape.

@Markle_Ethan Restructuring means you're just turning salary into signing bonus so he'd actually get the money sooner
English
@FarabaughFB I think re-structuring Pat would be crummy. He wasn’t used correctly last season so his production was a causality to that. Asking him to restructure after he’s been a team player through it all wouldn’t feel right
English
There's not many obvious restructure candidates the Steelers would want to touch this offseason, and I think it's something they don't really love doing...
But if they did imagine Highsmith (as DB said) and Freiermuth (could free $5.2 million) would be the two names.
Derrick@Steelers_DB
The Steelers have several rookie contract extension candidates that they’ll look to take care of before the regular season. In order to do that, they’ll need to restructure at least one deal, I think. They should start with Highsmith ($6.64M in savings). Where things get dicey are if they touch other contracts (specifically Watt).

@SNYDER_chips @ASaunders_PGH @NoahStrackbein It is a little strange. But there’s so much that could be happening there. So hard to know just how much to read into it
Maybe he’s on a long vacation, has something personal going on. OTOH, they could be working through medicals or something like that.
Lots of scenarios.
English
@ASaunders_PGH @FarabaughFB @NoahStrackbein Not that it’s a massive issue or anything but I find it weird that Darnell Savage hasn’t been made official yet? Any insight on that?
English
@CorLemm16 About $27M or so. Most of that will be used up by Rodgers and the incoming draft clsss
English
@FarabaughFB @FarabaughFB how much cap space do the Steelers have as of right now?

The #Eagles will host #PennState star offensive lineman Vega Ioane on a pre-draft visit, he said at pro day.
Ioane is considered the top IOL in the class and a projected mid first-rounder. Might not make it to the Eagles at #23. But worth bringing in.

Penn State DB Zakee Wheatley talked about how Steelers DBs Jaquan Brisker and Joey Porter Jr. helped him grow from a freshman who started at CB to a safety who can play all over.
“From the moment I came out here as a freshman, we’ve been best buds. Those are my brothers.”

Penn State safety Zakee Wheatley says he has visits set up with the Saints and Patriots.

Drew Allar says he went into his throwing session wanting to highlight NFL-like throws — pointing to under center PA and layering throws as a key to what he wanted to show.
He says in meetings teams asked him what weaknesses he saw on his tape. His first response — footwork.

Penn State RB Nick Singleton says he has a meeting set up with the Jets this week.
