Insider Throws Cold Water On Trade Rumors, Says Packers ‘Thrilled’ With WR Group

Once again, the Pittsburgh Steelers find themselves with a need at wide receiver. Trading George Pickens leaves them with a similar problem that they had last year. DK Metcalf is fantastic, but the depth behind him isn’t great. Perhaps the Steelers could use the trade market again to fill the void left by Pickens. The Green Bay Packers have a surplus of young, quality receivers, which makes them seem like a possibly trade partner for Pittsburgh. However, ESPN insider Peter Schrager doesn’t think that’s very likely.

“With the Steelers trading Pickens, there’s been a lot of rumors that [Romeo] Doubs, with his close relationship to [Aaron] Rodgers,” Schrager said Thursday on The Pat McAfee Show.
