Seeing how the Scots were Irish and the Scottish accents we have now especially in the Western Highlands probably originated in the Gaelic settlers from Ireland. And seeing how the Pictish and people were in the same category as the Welsh could it be possible they could have sounded Wes

They all spoke the old Brittonic language so yes, probably would have sounded like very different accents though.

They would have sounded fucking wierd to our ears. Only somewhat similar to Modern Welsh.

Not at all like welsh. Would sound like greek or a romance language to our modern ears

Probably closer to Welsh or Cornish than Irish/Modern Scot-Gaelic.
