Mike Tomlin on the decision to deal Kenny Pickett: "From his perspective, he felt like a change of scenery would be a good thing. Obviously when we felt the trajectory of the business with Chicago moving in the right direction, those dominoes started falling." "I won't get into specifics about our conversations, but I am appreciative of his efforts during his time in Pittsburgh and I wish him nothing but the absolute best in Philadelphia."
@bepryor Sounds like Fields trade was happening before Kenny trade
@bepryor He’s probably the worst 1st round QB pick for the Steelers of all time. I can’t think of another one that was worse
@bepryor I told EVERYONE...They shouldn't have drafted him in the first place, And was told by EVERYONE, I was stupid... He'll be bagging Groceries in 2 Years... I was right
@bepryor Tomlin sold out Pickett screwing his development from day one a common theme with this HC who should be unemployed
@bepryor Sounds like they wanted KP out a long time ago lol
@bepryor Says the coach who is praised every year for having a 9-8 record and one and done in the playoffs. By sticking with Tomlin, Pittsburgh has subjected their fan base to many years of pathetic mediocrity.
@bepryor Not even 2 years ago Tomlin was giddy about KP who is same player now that he was then. Just another example of a guys who coaches with his emotions and doesn’t know how to evaluate talent. Keep him out of the draft room
@bepryor I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY believe that was Kevin Colbert's pick. And, he probably convinced everyone in the building that not drafting KP would be considered a miss because they didn't draft Dan Marino. I don't think MT was 100% sold on KP.
@bepryor FUNNY NO COMMENTS ON PAYTON THE WAY HE DISRESPECTED WILSON. BUT LETS BASH @CoachTomlin FOR BEING HONEST AND GIVING #PICKETT 2YRS WHICH RESULTED IN 13 TD'S 13 INTERCEPTIONS!!!! #UNBELIEVABLE
@bepryor JUST CURIOUS @bepryor WHY ARE YOU STILL HARRASSING @CoachTomlin ABOUT #PICKETT THAT IS NOT ON @steelers TEAM??? JUST TO START DRAMA N NEGATIVITY! #TERRIBLEJOURNALISM
