The wide receiver position has been an interesting one to watch for the Steelers over the last couple of seasons. Last year, Pittsburgh had George Pickens, an occasional big play from Calvin Austin III, and really nothing else at the position. With only one playmaker on the outside, the Steelers really struggled to get the passing game going toward the end of the year.
Things appeared to have improved this offseason after the Steelers sent a second-round pick to Seattle for DK Metcalf. Having both of Metcalf and Pickens on the field at the same time surely would have opened up the offense.
