The Steelers trade George Pickens

[TheRangerDude]

He's led them to a 2-5 playoff record

Hey at least there are some wins in there.

Knowing this, do you think Pickens considers holding out?

It wouldn't be a holdup. He'd be a free agent, unless he's tagged

 

[Manster7588]

Steelers receivers have a sterling track record around the league, especially head cases who want new contracts, right? And we all know how good Jerry Jones is at dealing with contract situations!

This is all going according to plan, hopefully Micah Parsons walks from this clown show after Jerry uses up his cap on a #2 receiver and signs with the Eagles where he clearly wants so badly to be.

How do the Steelers keep getting away with this

 

[fightinfunbags]

He doesn't have leverage. He's already an immature, douchebag and if he holds out, he reaches malcontent, that is only about money level.

Not so sure. Don’t we all realize already that they play for money?

Obviously, but players who are that focused on getting paid can sometimes fall off a cliff when they do. I wouldn't risk it and I think the Steelers just took what they could get.

I think the Steelers parted with him because he’s a hold out risk. I don’t think he stops being a hold out risk just cause he got traded is what I’m saying.

If you're right, I'll give you credit. To me, he hasn't accomplished enough to be a hold out. I think he hurts himself significantly if he does.

Can blame Vontez Burfict for this. When he almost decapitated AB that started the downward spiral of diva WR's for the Steelers. And the fact the Steelers still were able to get any value for them.

So that just means he's not a 2026 free agent.

The Dallas Cowboys have been irrelevant for quite some time. I don’t really need to grasp at straws. The Cowboys can’t get out of their own way.

Neither team benefits. Pittsburgh loses a much needed receiver, Cowboys receive a locker room cancer to go with a lousy head coach.

Not to mention the entire division is better now. Cowboys could easily finish dead last next season.
