Should the Steelers be in on a JJ McCarthy trade for a day 3 picks?

    If the Vikings sign Kyler Murray, you can bet that JJ will be pulling a Kenny Pickett and start demanding a trade immediately! Murry is only 28 years old, so JJ's time as the team's starting QB will be gone. I am assuming Kyler Murray will not be competing for the starting job if he signs with Minnesota.


    Kenny's trade.
    Pittsburgh receiving a 2024 third-round pick (No. 98) and two 2025 seventh-round picks in exchange for Pickett and a 2024 fourth-round pick (No. 120).

    As crazy as it sounds JJ McCarthy is still only 23 years old.

    I am thinking a 4th or 5th round pick could land JJ, unless the Vikings want to do some kind of Pick Swap like the Kenny Pickett trade.

    I never thought He was going to be good, but people told me that a great HC, and OC could make him good, and they didn't So I would say no.

    The Vikings have a great receiving tandem but finished 29th in passing yardage. That isn't on the receivers it's on the QB.

    Why would any team trade for a player who has not put a single NFL caliber skill on tape? Just because another team was foolish enough to draft him in the first round?

    Please, no. What would be the point? We have Howard. They need a decent veteran QB if they are going to go with adding a QB to let Howard learn. I wouldn't take him even he was a free agent begging for a job.
