    I e been trying to tell people about this for a long time. Glad some of you are coming around, but it sucks watching Pickens dominate for Dallas.

    Remember when he could only run go routes?

    What a mediocre coach.

    Yup, but he is absolutely killing teams on slants, something the Steelers didn’t do nearly enough with him.

    This tells a lot about the coaching tree in Pittsburgh right now.
    No matter who is the OC, offense pathetic.
    Same with the defense

    Thanks for speaking up. I appreciate it. Some others have done the same. But some are just going to keep moving the goal post all the way to the kid getting a jacket.

    At first I just thought it was dumb to let go of Pickens for a few reasons
    1. They knew how he was at uga
    2. He was only an issue a couple times a season
    3. Tomlin never did anything to him for saying he had to sit out x game or x plays
    4. We only got a third and fifth. (And we could have got that from a comp pick of a third).

    But after a month of him playing for Dallas it got more and more of a bad look on us. We clearly never used him to his potential.

    The fact he already has a thousand yards, 7 TD, is insane.



    Also, I'm curious if Dallas will
    A, do ERFA contract
    B, have him sign it and then trade him
    C, or do the rare move of trading him away to a team so they can do the ERFA.

    I am sure Dallas will keep him for several years
