Steelers Insider Reveals Deeply Concerning Offseason Update On Drew Allar originally appeared on SportsNet Pittsburgh. Add SportsNet Pittsburgh as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
When the Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Penn State quarterback Drew Allar in the third round, many analysts agreed that he would be a project for the Steelers.
However, few probably would have guessed that he'd need to start from scratch.
Unfortunately for Pittsburgh, Allar doesn't sound close to NFL-ready based on a troubling update from Steelers insider Brooke Pryor on Wednesday.
"They're essentially uninstalling everything that he learned and they're reuploading their own methods and fundamentals and mechanics with Allar," Pryor said on Wednesday's episode of SportsCenter.
That's far worse than originally expected, especially for a third-rounder. It's now hard to see why the Steelers drafted him in the first place if he needed so much work.
Unfortunately, Allar's footwork is abysmal, so it's not surprising that Mike McCarthy's coaching staff is overhauling his mechanics. Hopefully they're able to transform him into a usable quarterback, as Pittsburgh may need him if Aaron Rodgers doesn't return.
