    The Steelers could have been the team that benefitted from that contract year, but they chose to cripple the offense for a third-round pick instead.

    Given how clearly yesterday's games demonstrated the Steelers' flaws and the talent of Pickens, it is certainly relevant.

    You do realize Pickens is playing with a much better QB in Dallas than anybody the Steelers has.

    People don’t want to hear it any longer? Precious! Our RB Coach said Naj was “Special” Well, he’s now gone too but George Pickens IS special. I’ve never seen hands like his. So, let’s get rid of the most dynamic player we have and do it fast. Yeah, yeah, that’s the ticket that a fix things!

    You do realize that doesn’t account for all of his production, right? He was better than any receiver the Steelers currently have, including Metcalf, last year with two quarterbacks worse than Rodgers. If you want to delude yourself into thinking one of the best receivers in the NFL wouldn’t have made a difference for the Steelers this season, I can’t help you. If you don’t think Pickens is that good, you haven’t been paying attention to the NnFL outside of Pittsburgh.

    That is the implication. Just because they didn’t win a championship with Brown, they shouldn’t have kept Pickens. I understand that it seems ridiculous when I reflect your point back at you. That is because your argument makes no sense.

    What part of the organization ****ed up by not wanting him around do you not understand?

    They are supposed to be in the business of winning football games, not charm school. Talent goes a long way to winning games. Giving up their best offensive talent was stupid, and it has cost them dearly.

    Also, did you hurt yourself moving the goalposts just now?

    Pickens looks like arguably the best WR in football right now. Yea this was a horrible trade.

    I can't wait for Rooney to answer that question. Pickens is going to be an All-Pro this year, and everybody is going to want to know why the Steelers got rid of their best offensive player on the team.

    Starting to get the Barkley and the Giants Vibe here. New York has since gotten rid of both their GM and Coach after letting Barkley walk.

    When do we start asking if George Pickens can win the offensive player of the year award?

    My advice is head to a bomb shelter, disconnect your TV, unplug your computer, and throw your smart phone away; because George Pickens mania is taking over the world.


    Today on NBC Sports... Pro Football Talk live. Mike Florio proudly wears his Pittsburgh Steelers George Pickens #14 jersey. :thumbs up:
