    Freiermuth just suffered his third concussion. Nobody is trading for him right now, but yeah, I'd trade him for the right price if any team was stupid enough to take that risk.

    I would have no problem with them trading Harris or Johnson, but no way would they get enough value for it to be worthwhile right now.

    Maybe you put Highsmith on the untouchable list. Maybe.

    At this point I'd entertain offers for anyone if I were Khan. This team should have been blown up two years ago.

    Besides TJ Watt Minkah and possibly Pickens because of his upside potential who the hell would want any of our bum players?

    Disagree. 2nd round pick that showed his upside his rookie year. Probably a playoff team that needs a weapon. Get him for a playoff run then next year prove himself for a contract. Team that believes in him and Matt Canada is a clown. I could see the Patriots wanting him but would we do business with them?

    Not trading Muth. Nobody giving up a 1st for Harris. Maybe DJ. I never liked him but the return isn’t worth what he brings believe it or not.

    Minkah, Pickens and Pickett are the only three I'd protect. I love watching Watt play, he's a freak. But I don't see where he is going to average much more that 12, 13 starts a year and that isn't likely to get better as he ages. Plus, no one would bring more in a trade than he would, plus the cap savings they would realize. I felt when they signed him this team would never be good enough while he was in his prime to be much better than possibly having a shot at a wild card. If they are going to take their lumps, might as well do it well getting younger, cheaper and hopefully better talent on the team.

    2020 - 900 yards and 9 tds.
    2021 - 900 yards and 2 tds.

    Steelers have had a clown at OC and aging QB. There’s no other WR a team could bring in with that upside and something to play for. Playoff run + 1 year on rookie contract to work for a payday.

    Easily could get a 2nd or 3rd.

    So trade away whatever decent players we have so we will be even worse which means it will take even longer to be competitive again. Brilliant plan! Maybe we can get some sharks with freaking laser beams as well

    I'm a Claypool fan and I wouldn't give not than a 5th... AND I LIKE HIM. Mason has no value. He is a3rd string QB with an expiring contract making like 6 mill and his own team thinks so little of him they don't even dress him... maybe a conditional 7th

    The trade deadline isn't until November I think, if they only got maybe two wins, if teams call you listen.

    Even for a guy like Wormley if some team offered a late round pick take it, you can replace him on the 53 with Loudermilk.

    Unfortunately this isn't Madden so no one would take Claypool for more than a 6 round pick. With his salary might as well keep him until his contract finishes out

    If a team has injuries at the WR position and gets desperate, you can probably do better than a 6th for Claypool, his new team would have him under contract for the 2023 season.

    He actually has played a lot more snaps this season compared to the past. Plus they aren’t going to use him when we’re down by 30.

    You don't build a team by getting rid of your star players. You couldn't ask for enough to get rid of TJ Watt.

    If you have elite players you keep them unless their miserable then you have to figure something out
