Coming out of the 2024 NFL Draft, there is one clear spot on the roster of the Pittsburgh Steelers that still needs addressed. That would be the wide receiver position, particularly a strong No. 2 opposite George Pickens.
Though the Steelers came away with Michigan’s Roman Wilson at No. 84 overall in the third round, giving the Steelers a receiver they’ve coveted throughout the pre-draft process, Pittsburgh still needs to do more behind Pickens and Wilson.
Veterans Van Jefferson and Quez Watkins, as well as third-year pro Calvin Austin III and Reserve/Futures wide receiver Marquez Callaway are certainly fine pieces to have, but they aren’t exactly needle movers at the position, which has led to the Steelers being tied to speculation regarding trades for San Francisco’s Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel, Seattle’s DK Metcalf, and Denver’s Courtland Sutton.
