Jets are open to trading Breece Hall.
very interesting.
 
Lol todayI read something about Ward being compared to Mahomes....

Every damn draft cycle QB evaluations start off reasonable then slowly climb to epic and unattainable levels.... like very famously with Ryan leaf... lol he starts out as a average prospect, then by draft day he is on par with Manning himself, and in some evaluations higher than him🤣

The NFL has always absolutely sucked at evaluating QBs... cant wait to see who gets overdrafted tonight🤣
 
Buddy tells me it’s being reported on Sirius NFL XM that the Steelers are peddling Pickens.

i saw that, too.
"to ensure they get something for him in case he leaves next season"

we can tag him two times. we can also let him go and get a comp pick. though trading him might net more than a 3rd round comp pick.
Other than DK, we have **** at WR if Pickens is traded away. Which would mean we'd need to either get a WR in return along with a pick.

Trading Pickens just doesn't make sense to me.

Tagging WRs is going to get expensive. And while Pickens is a good WR, I don't think he's good enough to deserve the tag (without a monster year this year).

If we could sign him to a 2nd contract, I think the one he would deserve would be something like what we gave DJ on his 2nd deal. A big bump for a rookie deal, but not something that puts him at the top of the WR pay scale.
 
I've seen a couple of the bigger media guys release their final mock today and have the Steelers taking a RB at 21. I'm not sure about what I think of this considering our last first round RB pick was outplayed most of the time by someone that didn't get drafted. Go RB in the 3rd if anyone good drops. Unless, Hampton from NC is really that good.

I agree. Pickens has not put up the monster numbers needed to offset his tantrums and bad attitude to deserve a massive contract at this point. He has disappeared a lot of games, but that's probably more because of the QB and offensive play calling.

I'd like to see him play a year with DK and a good QB to see what he could do in a better situation. Since the QB situation is looking worse than it was last year, who knows if he will get the chance.

I want an elite RB. An elite QB. An elite DL. An elite CB. After that I don't care.
