Where will George Pickens rank among number-one wide receivers by the end of the season?
The Steelers effectively cemented George Pickens as their number one wide receiver this offseason by trading Diontae Johnson. Without Johnson, all they have behind Pickens is Calvin Austin III, Van Jefferson, and Quez Watkins. Few teams would have any of them as starters, but few have a George Pickens.
Now, Pickens hasn’t torn through the record books yet or even made a Pro Bowl. He still has so much to accomplish going into his third season. But everybody recognizes the amount of talent that he has and the circumstances of his first two years.
