Great ballpark and I love walking the city. Once again, however, a bad team.
Pickens traded to Cowboys.
Dallas will receive Pickens and a 2027 sixth-round pick, while Pittsburgh will get a 2026 third-round selection and a 2027 fifth-rounder, according to reports.
They donāt get a second-rounder but the āvalueā translates to a high second-rounder.
Suddenly, they are thin again at WR. Maybe itās best to stay away from Rogers, win 5-7 games in 2026, and then draft your franchise QB.

I guess Woods becomes #2ā¦an improvement over Van Jefferson I would think. I wonder if this catches Rodgers by surprise.
If it means Steelers donāt sign Rodgers and we go 4-13 this year Iād be legitimately thrilled.

Weād win about that many with or without AR
If Rogers stays healthy (assuming he signs a contract), Heāll definitely add wins.
Save the money on Rogers and use it to lower beer prices so the fans can tolerate the 4-13 season.

Ehā¦.he had better receivers, RBs and coaching in NY and still lost
True, but having him vs. Mason for 17 games will generate more wins. Maybe only a few. But perhaps the difference between 6-11 and 10-7ā¦which is very Tomlinesque.
Iām f the Steelers are dumb enough to actually sign AR, the very least Iād hope he be able to do is get Tomlin fired
A-Aron is a coming!

Andā¦Another WR (at some point).
Keep your eye on Gabe Davis. He has been working out with Metcalf.
I like him. Hopefully heāll get healthy and earn a contract offer.
I really donāt think A-Aron gets the Steelers more wins than Mason, but hopefully he takes Tomlin with him in Januaryā¦.
This will certainly make it easier to root for 3-14 (I was going to do that anyway).
Heāll get hurt early. No one will ever remember the āRodgers Era.ā

Non-Steeler fan. Imo Rodgers if healthy will drag them to a winning record but no deep playoff run. Heās not totally washed but heās certainly not a QB who can elevate the team at this point in his career, even before you consider the drama he brings off the field. An early-season injury to him and a trade deadline sell off would probably be the best thing for the future but I donāt think the Rooneys will go for that.
Rodgers doesnāt bring any drama. The biggest issue is that he is the complete antithesis of what Tomlin-ball is; Rodgers is a passer. Tomlin prefers out routes and sideline passes to short receivers and a run game that doesnāt work. Not sure why Tomlin wanted Rodgersās badā¦.
