Heading into the 2025 NFL Draft, there were rumblings that the Pittsburgh Steelers may trade receiver George Pickens at some point during the draft. While a trade never happened, the Steelers reportedly did try to trade their young receiver but were unable to.

"Unless ESPN's Adam Schefter just made up his own trade list out of thin air, everybody on his 'hit list' - not just George Pickens - should be upset with their teams.''

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens could be on the move ahead of Day 2 of the 2025 NFL draft. Dianna Russini of The Athletic reported the Steelers have been "receiving calls" about Pickens and that the team is "open to conversations" on the fourth-year receiver.
