Matt Williamson: Steelers Have ‘Massive’ Need At WR, George Pickens ‘A Strong No. 2 That Aspires To Be A No. 1’

The Pittsburgh Steelers opened a sizeable hole at wide receiver when they traded Diontae Johnson that they have yet to fill. “Their need there is massive”, draft analyst Matt Williamson told Tim Benz recently on the Breakfast with Benz podcast. That states the obvious, but he lays into their current depth chart pretty good.

“I think they have a strong No. 2 that aspires to be a No. 1”, he said of George Pickens, for example. And to my mind, that’s hardly an unfair description. I think he’s established his talent level much more so than he has his actual role.
