Hey man, at least they’re consistently trying to find an answer instead of acquiring a guy and riding it out way too long. At least they didn’t do the Denver way and give up insane premium assets to just cut ties before 2 seasons are up.

Yeah, whether you’re a fan of Fields or not I would have believed they could have at least gotten a 4th rounder for him at a minimum and thought they wouldn’t get rid of him for anything less. Sure it has the potential to get to that but who knows if they make moves to prevent that from being the case by either starting Wilson to cap the games or pulling the plug if they’re just plodding along. Steelers have made some interesting moves regarding the QB position alone this past week…

LOL Thats insane. They said Wilson was starting hence the Kenny Pickett displeasure… Who’s starting now?

Yeah, they did. But they improved for the most part. Savage, Darby, Armstead, Duvernay, Davis and Morse improve the roster from where they were at come the start of FA. They may have paid a bit more but in comparison to some of those other teams who were the head scratchers, they didn’t grossly overpay.

Honestly, Green Bay or Atlanta for me. Jacksonville made some reasonable pick ups to improve. Same goes for Philly and San Fran’. Not many bad windows so far… Carolina, Miami and Tennessee are the only real head scratchers.

Marvin Harrison Jr., Ohio State - Bears Rome Odunze, Washington - Chargers Ladd McConkey, Georgia - Ravens Brian Thomas Jr., LSU - Colts Xavier Worthy Texas - Chiefs Bonus, Buffalo Bills pick: Johnny Newton, Illinois Surprised you don’t have Nabers on here… Think he goes to Arizona. Also, if it happens I somehow win please donate it to a GoFundMe that’s in the aid of a child or a family that unfortunately has lost a member and are struggling financially. Thank you.

Trying to find where I read it this morning from my internet history, but the talk was apparently Green Bay have reached out to him. EDIT: They haven’t reached out to him yet, it’s reported they are simply keeping an eye on him by Bill Huber, Sports Illustrated’s Packers reporter since 2008

Was actually hoping he would be there @ 60… After his combine there’s no way that’s a possibility unless he has a pro day, bombs it and/or gets injured.

If he goes defense, specifically edge rusher, Missouri’s Robinson would be legit.

Eh, he isn’t great but I think he can be competent on that Steelers team. Decent defense, great skill players. They just needed average play last year and they get in the playoffs… No different than Denver the year they acquired Wilson… I remember reading a statistic that if they averaged 20.5ppg, providing the defenses played the same each game, they would have walked away with the number 1 seed. Wilson needs a productive run game to be successful at this point in his career. That 2022 season their whole RB room; Javonte Williams, Murray, Gordon & Edmonds were injury prone. Same last season. Inconsistent run game. Now, don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying that Wilson will turn it around but the play from those 2 years was better than Pittsburgh had… Couple that with what should be a reasonable game that can support his deficiencies and it could work out.

You traded with KC… Definitely not the best. 😛

Yeah Means is someone I’ve looked at, thought he was pretty sound for Pitt this past season. Asked in the WR Class thread what people thought of him. Seems to be a no-name to most. Probably for good reason too though. I like him but his game is very simple. Not much versatility.

Van Jefferson to the Steelers apparently…? Harris/Warren Pickens/Austin/Jefferson/Calloway/Mims Freiermuth/Washington Not a bad set of pieces for Wilson and that offense.

This signing may be a… day… too late.

Whether you like Mr. Unlimited or not, he’s proven to have some success in the league. Pickett? They got enamored in taking a guy the fans wanted who played in their yard. Don’t think he’s awful but he certainly wasn’t what they expected and hoped for... When you put it on paper as Wilson vs. Pickett, the Steelers are taking one step up from starting from scratch. A competent QB should have had some success with the weapons he had at his disposal. Blame Canada, blame Tomlin, blame Pickett. All 3 played their part. Best thing they did is admit it wasn’t working out the way the planned and moved on. Do wonder though if Pickett voicing his dislike for the Wilson signing is what ultimately played the part in them moving on… He probably could have found some value sitting behind Wilson. Probably going to find more on that Eagles squad and Hurts however.

Boldin might honestly be one of my favorite receivers from the past 20 years. Tough, consummate professional. Takes some cojones to get your face absolutely shattered and only miss 3 games. Insane.

Oh so now they have to be something other than a #1? Lol Whteher they are a number 1 or not is irrelevant. Neither was them having to be 6”1+… 6”0 is plenty when you couple that with their weight of 215lbs+. Keep changing it until the narrative is exactly where I’m wholly wrong. 🤘

#23 & Fields for pick #9? 🤔

Would be stupid to. Like you said in your first post, they can’t be thoroughly impressed going into the year with Brissett and Zappe… You might be right that they are the most likely to trade out of it but who knows… Do you think he is gone top 10 then?

I mean what do they do? It’s likely QB’s first 3 picks, right? Williams, Maye, Daniels…? Washington isn’t trading out of the top 3 and after the Mac Jones trade, can’t see them doing it either. So do they trade to the #1 spot? 11, 23, 2025 first? Or do they need to give up more? Maybe they just stand pat and see if any of them fall past those teams then jump into 4 or 5 with AZ or NYG. Imagine AZ trade out… Man they would be absolutely stacked in this draft. 11, 23, 27, 35, 66, 71 & 90….

I agree he’s a talent just that I don’t see him as much of a downfield/vertical threat. Neither is Samuel. Both their bread and butter is in the intermediate and underneath game. Decent receivers but not exactly a guy of that style who comes to mind.

😂 Very petulant of you… A list of 19 teams and one guy invalidates it all because you feel he doesn’t block. He might not block regularly but he does and can. You know what, I’m not even going to waste my time. If you dismissed the whole list because of one guy then good on you. Simple thing, teams having that isn’t as rare as you made it out to be.

Quite a few, from the top of my head without much thought I can come up with 13 teams. Justin Jefferson, Minnesota Jamar Chase/Tee Higgins, Cincinnati DJ Moore, Chicago Brandon Aiyuk, San Fran DK Metcalf, Seattle AJ Brown, Philadelphia Mike Evans, Tampa George Pickens, Pittsburgh Amari Cooper, Cleveland Amon St. Brown, Detroit Chris Olave, New Orleans Christian Watson, Green Bay Puka Nacua, LA Rams That’s over a 1/3 of the NFL. Could even go further and add other guys like: Michael Wilson, Arizona CeeDee Lamb, Dallas Nico Collins, Houston Josh Palmer, LA Chargers Courtland Sutton, Denver Drake London, Atlanta Thats well over half the league that have a guy who does all of what he suggested… Not that much of a rarity. 🤷‍♂️

What makes you believe that? I don’t see the deep threat you do but I am intrigued as to how you are at that view. Also, injury wise he’s been relatively healthy out with the fractured foot his first year in AZ. Came back and seemed to be fine. I think he’s a solid player, don’t get me wrong. But the only season he had worth of note was the year prior to the trade. That season they targeted him 146 times. 146! Mark Andrews had 7 more targets but came away with 350 more yards… So again, I’m very curious how you are at the conclusion he would have been a solid vertical threat for this team?

Going to have to trade up if you want him. Can’t see him making it to #20 with all the recent moves and a great combine workout for him make that a certainty.
