DK Metcalf helps fill a glaring need for a WR1 for the Steelers. The question now is what do the Steelers do with WR George Pickens?

Metcalf’s arrival, coupled with Pickens’ on- and off-the-field antics, may cause the Pittsburgh Steelers to be forced to shop their now WR2. If the Steelers do trade Pickens, look for them to sign another veteran once free agency starts or address the need in the 2025 NFL draft.

The Seahawks had been open about shopping Metcalf in recent days, as it seemed increasingly unlikely the two sides would reach an agreement on a long-term extension before Metcalf hit free agency next spring.
