    There's upside if you guess right. And no one will remember that you got it wrong in a few weeks.

    And it was a reasonable guess too. By him or his random source or whatever.
    its a little different because people are really feigning for a splash player in a trade at the moment.

    If this was during the season or a few months from now people would shrug but he takes a hit to his credibility because that type of tweet jumps to the top of the local sports page.

      The focus now seems to be on DK Metcalf. Read a good summary of how we could easily fit him into the cap structure. Would immediately become our #1.

          In Arthur Smith's run-heavy, run-first offense, you add Metcalf or any of these premier receivers? Both that guy and Pickens are just not going to get targeted that much. Not that that bothers me, but it probably would them.

            Honestly think this deal has been agreed upon, but we have to wait til June to find out.

            That would all make sense.

              Man, I would be REALLY excited about Metcalf. That dude is just a monster WR. That would be one hell of a duo at WR.

                DK would be awesome, plus having played with Wilson. Wow. He is prone to stupid, 'overly aggressive' penalties, but I don't think he's a diva.

                That being said, getting QBs, WRs, etc doesn't mean much when you have an OC that likes to pass 12 plays a game.

                  Is that 12 passes a game from the falcons or Titans offense? I believe it will be more then that depending on game situations of course. Oh and how Russ is cooking. Lol

                    Both. Neither team passed much.

                      To lazy to look but I do wonder what Pickens average targets were last season.
                      I would think they want to keep him semi happy with targets? And targets for RB and TE. I can’t see only 12 per game. Does not give me much hope to score more points. But I guess we will see this season.

                        To add DK Metcalf at what he expects to be paid would be stupid. It does not make sense. I don't believe it will happen.

                        I can't believe there are Steelers fans who believe this is happening.
