The full Joe Starkey Show with Donny Football from Wednesday, March 13th, 2024

Hour 1 with Joe Starkey and Donny Chedrick: This is unlike anything we've seen from the Steelers to begin free agency. Russell Wilson is one of the biggest free agent signings in Steelers history... for $1.2 million. Patrick Queen is a good player to pair with the other Steelers linebackers. The Steelers have been unable to fill inside linebacker since Ryan Shazier, but this might be the answer. They changed quarterback and inside linebacker, plus punter, so far. Diontae Johnson is running backwards to Carolina. A losing player is out with Donte Jackson coming in. Callers weigh in on Diontae Johnson and how he would run backwards. Jeff Patton of the Baseball Card Castle has a 2012 Russell Wilson card as Starkey's Card of the Week, and a Colorado Rookies card of Wilson when he played baseball!

Hour 2 with Joe Starkey and Donny Chedrick: Rob Long of 105.7 The Fan in Baltimore joined the show. Rob is not a big fan of Patrick Queen and doesn't think the Steelers can rely on him to be a great player after playing next to Roquan Smith. Rob thinks Steelers fans could be disappointed and him not be a Pro Bowl player. Queen had eight tackles against the Steelers last game of the season, but many of them were well past the line of scrimmage. He doesn't cover well, but is a better tackler than before. Rob thinks Mike Tomlin can significantly help him. Donnybrook! Five debate questions for Starkey and Donny.

Hour 3 with Joe Starkey and Donny Chedrick: Sam Monson of PFF joined the show. Patrick Queen was a guy who flashed potential but was out of place when playing without Roquan Smith.Baltimore also got the best version of Queen. The question is, did Smith help Queen learn, or was he the reason Queen had success. Sam thinks it was a win-win deal between the Steelers getting Donte Jackson for Dionate Johnson. Russell Wilson is still a good player. He described how wins rates are judged and the arguments between T.J. Watt and Myles Garrett. Mark Kaboly of The Athletic joined the show. Mark gives Russell Wilson a C, Patrick Queen an A. Diontae Johnson trade is an incomplete grade. Mark thinks Pickett's career is probably done in Pittsburgh, but the Steelers appear to be going all in with Russell Wilson. Free association.

Hour 4 with Joe Starkey and Donny Chedrick: Chris "Mac" McClain from sports radio WFNZ joined the show. Chris detailed what the Steelers are getting in Donte Jackson. He is a character and a piece of work. The interviews will be fun. He's a fast guy who was slowed by an achilles injury. Andy Dalton might be the one who goes to Carolina as a backup. Texts in the city.
