US Edition"This is a horrible organization" - Mark Madden mocks Steelers’ arrogance in draft failures after George Pickens trade
- Earlier this week, the Dallas Cowboys acquired wideout George Pickens from the Pittsburgh Steelers in exchange for a third-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
- The trade followed discussions between Steelers’ GM Omar Khan, Pickens’ agent, and Cowboys representatives after the 2025 NFL draft to address team needs and roster building.
- Pickens, a 24-year-old former second-round Steelers draft pick, averaged 15.3 yards per catch with 900 yards in 2024 but faced character concerns and missed games due to injury.
- Cowboys’ SVP Stephen Jones called Pickens a dynamic receiver with ‘unbelievable ball-tracking ability’ who he sees as a WR1 rather than a No. 2 alongside CeeDee Lamb.
- The trade signals the Steelers’ ongoing effort to accumulate future picks and revamp their roster, while the Cowboys expect Pickens to enhance their passing attack and indirectly help their struggling run game.
