August4th Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 wow. I kinda suggested we trade him during camp after seeing the ridder/howel trades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky151 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 So Picket, a 4th, and a couple of 7ths for a third? That's a bit of an embarrassment for Pittsburgh but better to move on now. Fields would make sense for them as Wilson's backup if they didn't have to make a decision on his option before seeing him take a snap in practice. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dll2000 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 A number of PA fans were telling me it was going to be a QB competition between Pickett and Wilson. Guess not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August4th Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 sounds like Kenny soured on the steelers behind the scenes according to some local reports 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 4 minutes ago, MikeT14 said: How is Malik Willis the one that survived all this? Willis may not survive long. But if he does, the answer is because he was always a long term, high upside, low chance of return prospect. Pickett was supposed to be NFL ready, and Ridder was definitely supposed to be closer than Willis. Makes sense to wait longer to give up on Willis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently it is actually Kenny Pickett and a 4th in exchange for a 3rd and 2 7ths. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mox Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Don't really get this unless they plan on draft a QB or he became a problem behind the scenes. He's a decent cheap backup for the next two years. Russ is obviously the starter this year. Why give up the cheap depth? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
