They will prob draft a qb in the later rounds or at the very least sign a udfa

 

Tyler Hunter signed with the Browns today. Their QB's are Deshaun Watson, Jameis Winston, Tyler Huntley and Dorian Thompson Robinson. They have all the pieces in place now to run the Wishbone.

The Steelers plan to pursue another top receiver, per Gerry Dulac.

Justin Jefferson. If that happens what are we giving up???

 

I've seen a report that he turned down over $30 million a year, so he could very well be a one-year rental.

 

Per AB:



it's crazy till it happens.. right?

 

Nah surely not. That'd be insane.

 

Bud Dupree ready to return to the Steelers.

For sure! If the opportunity came up definitely! It's a great organization and Tomlin - he is who he is. The standard is the standard - for sure I'd go back.

If I am reading this article correctly the source is Antonio Brown; AB for Short. Not Sure who is still talking to AB, or why people are even talking to AB about this???

Steelers Fans Keeping Dream Alive For Justin Jefferson Trade After Antonio Browns Latest Rumor (steelernation.com)

 

Justin Jefferson was a guy they talked about earlier. Maybe they are revisiting that.
Tyler Boyd is just asking too much for the Steelers.... though they have to realize he has posted back-to-back 1,000 seasons. Jefferson is not coming cheaper.
Michael Gallup could be an option....

 

Don't know but it's all over my fb page this morning. I wonder if they did trade for Jefferson if Pickens would be part of the trade.. I can't imagine Pickens would be ok bringing another # 1 wr in

 

Who cares? Trading Pickens for Jefferson makes no sense. Jefferson is in the final year of his contract and he is asking for way too much. He passed on a deal with an average salary over $30 million. Pickens is still on his rookie deal. Also, they need to add receivers, not just exchange them.

 

All this talk about Jefferson. What about Stephon Diggs? He wasn’t a happy camper last year and his contract is similar to DJ’s.

 

I doubt the Bills will move Diggs, but Jefferson is in the last year of his contract, he wants an insane contract, and the Vikings need draft capital to try to move up to take a quarterback.

 

Wonder what this could mean. It was posted on March 15th

 

It would keep Pickens from being constantly double teamed

 

It means he likes eggs Benedict

 

Justin Jefferson would cost at least our #1 this year and maybe next year's too. He is really, really good and Jefferson and Pickens would be the best WR combo in the league. So I guess will have to wait and see what happens.

 

i highly doubt JJ will happen, would bet my house on it

 

Giving up two first-round picks for a player in the final year of his contract would be insanely stupid.

 

There is no need for Bud and that is a good thing

He would be number 4 behind Watt Highsmith and Herbig and would get next to no snaps

 

Herbig got some snaps as No. last year. Also, they rely on those guys making plays, so having a solid No. 4 if there is an injury is important.

That said, he would have to come cheaply and knowing his role will be no more than Golden's last season, likely less.

 

You lost me with the part in red. Typo?

With Watt injury is certainly a factor otherwise the top 3 get almost 100% of the snaps and number 3 gets a lot of them
