The Pittsburgh Steelers General Manager Kevin Colbert met with reporters on Monday morning. The biggest topic was obviously the hole left at quarterback by the recently retired Ben Roethlisberger.
Colbert had this to say about who the quarterback would be if they had to play a game today.
"If we started a season today, Mason would be our starter. He's 5-4-1 as a starter. We're excited to see what's next for Mason."

Obviously there isn't many Steelers fans who love to hear that. Many believe they know what Rudolph brings to the table, and it's not much. Colbert would go on to say that they will take four quarterbacks to camp in the fall.
"We know we're going to add to the position. I can't tell you how at this point. We will go to camp with four. If we had start today with Mason as our starter, let's go. We'll try to build the best team around him."
Now does any of this mean that the Steelers won't go out and try to add to the position via any means possible. No. And Colbert touched on that subject too.
"Can we add to that process from the outside? Yes. We always look at trades, we always look at unrestricted groups, potential cuts down the road. We know we're going to add to the position."
The Steelers will begin their free agent meetings tomorrow. That means they will sit down as an organization, and begin to look at the potential free agents across the NFL. They will also see how their own free agents fit into that equation.
