Tyler Shough will be a seasoned quarterback, to say the least, coming out of Louisville. His college career ended at Louisville, took a pitstop at Texas Tech and started with Oregon. During his time at Oregon, Shough overlapped with a few current and former New Orleans Saints, most notably Juwan Johnson. Shough spent the majority of his time in Eugene backing up Justin Herbert, and that's what he was doing when Johnson transferred to Oregon.

There may not be many blockbuster trades during the NFL draft, but the Pittsburgh Steelers could try to pull one off. Pittsburgh just paid D.K. Metcalf handsomely, and they didn't do it to have Mason Rudolph throwing him the football. They're desperate for a quarterback and desperation can lead to some bold moves, such as calling the Carolina Panthers to get ahead of the New Orleans Saints in the NFL draft.

If he's on the board in Round 1, former Saints running back Deuce McAllister would pass on him. Despite playing the same position, McAllister doesn't think the pick makes sense, looking at where the league is and where the Saints are. The top-10 running back has become a rarity in the NFL draft.
