Maybe. Probably. And that would have been a realistic opinion since the start of the season seeing as how they utterly failed to address the WR position for this season.Yep. Kid had the opportunity to step up & be a leader and turn over a new leaf... But he's back to being the same problem child.
But trading him essentially waves the white flag on this season
If Pickens has lost his teammates, and is losing the coaches as well... He either needs to become very apologetic and turn himself around, or they need to move him. And I don't see him realizing him being so wrong anytime soon.
So it might be best to just move him. Maybe even make him part of a trade for a less headcase WR. They got rid of Dionate, (and before that AB, Martavis and Chase) for the same reasons. Rot in the room spoils the whole team.
I loved the guy, but I'm ready to catapult him for whatever they can get at this point.
