The dissection of the Steelers’ trade of George Pickens continues, with one reporter claiming the vets grew weary of him. Appearing on #1 Cochran Sports Showdown last night, Mark Kaboly had some strong thoughts on the subject.
“I think it needed to be done”, he said of the Steelers trading Pickens. “I think it was getting really ugly behind the scenes there. And I think some of the players of veteran leadership weren’t too thrilled with George [Pickens]. I don’t know the timeline on that. So I think that pushed it to the edge”.
Kaboly did say that the Steelers would not have done the George Pickens trade for a fourth-rounder.
