    The Steelers have been receiving calls about the availability of WR George Pickens, per sources.

    Pittsburgh is open to conversations as it navigates Friday night without a second-round pick (traded for DK Metcalf). pic.twitter.com/BZa9ubyd4z

    He is a bit of a headcase, but the guy is talented and would give the Jets a nice 1/2 punch at WR paired with Wilson

    His contract is up after this year and would need an extension, correct?

    Personally, I'd pass.

    Pass
    he’s good, but he’s already old right?
    Make a deal, deal for him after the draft

    Naw, he's only 24. But at times, seems to have the maturity level of my 12 year old :cool:

    He’s nowhere near worth the trouble. I’d almost prefer a guy getting in trouble off the field than pouting like a whiney bitch when a QB overthrows him.

    I know someone who coached him at Georgia. Said he’s dumber than a pile of rocks too.

    Why anyone would want this guy on their team is beyond me. Hes an inconsistent malcontent.

    That means he'd probably be cheap as far as compensation goes. I think Pickens is decent, but there are some character questions apparently. This would likely be just a one year rental, unless the Jets really want a repeat of the Reddick situation.

    Wasn't he throwing tantrums on the sideline with Fields as his QB last season? Probably not a good idea to run it back.
