The name Ryan Switzer has made its way across the country in one NFL season. The former Dallas Cowboy was traded to the Oakland Raiders early in the offseason, only to be traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers this past week.
Why did the Steelers need Switzer? They didn’t, but moving down a draft pick wasn’t a bad move to add to their overall team.
Switzer adds to the return game and also to the receiving core. But it doesn’t help some roster hopefuls. It may also hurt the chances of a player waiting to get back on the field, who returned to Pittsburgh will full expectations to play this season.
