It’s too early to tell the full impact of the George Pickens deal, for both Dallas and Pittsburgh. But we already knew the Cowboys' plan here. And this new detail illuminates what Pittsburgh is thinking.

The Steelers reportedly tried to trade George Pickens during the 2025 NFL Draft and were “laughed at" by other NFL teams.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens wasn't considered an option by multiple teams in the 2022 NFL draft, according to ESPN's Brooke Pryor. "At least one NFL team took him off their draft board after being turned off by his behavior during his predraft visit, according to a high-ranking team executive," Pryor reported Saturday.
