The Pittsburgh Steelers have significant decisions to make this offseason, particularly regarding who their quarterback will be next season and whether they intend to pursue any major trades. Pittsburgh made a significant trade following last year's NFL draft when it sent wide receiver George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys.
Could the Steelers look to make a similar move after this year's draft? Bleacher Report's Gary Davenport identified eight NFL stars who may still be on the trading block this offseason, and T. J.
Watt is among those mentioned. "To be clear, moving Watt for anything less than a first-round pick — even with his sizable contract — would be selling low. It is also fair to question whether the current version of the Steelers, even with Aaron Rodgers, profiles as a legitimate Super Bowl contender," Davenport wrote on Friday.
