George Pickens traded from the Pittsburgh Steelers to the Dallas Cowboys in return a third rounder
00:05
making its way back to the Steel City so what does George Pickens now bring to Big D to add
00:12
on to this offense we talked about it on the day of the NFL draft at least during draft week at the
00:18
end of last month Jerry Jones GM owner of course of the Dallas Cowboys saying he was working on
00:24
substantive trades for the Cowboys what exactly that meant we weren't entirely sure we thought
00:29
there might be something ahead of the 2025 NFL draft happened after they trade for George Pickens how do
00:36
you grade the trade on both sides I think it's actually it could work out extremely well because
00:40
understand this George Pickens extreme talent extreme headaches the one thing that you don't
00:45
like to see out of a football player is I quit on my team he did that multiple times and also
00:49
understand this from the Pittsburgh Steelers perspective and how he made his way to the
00:53
Dallas Cowboys the Cowboys fans will look at this and they should man we stole an unbelievable
00:57
talent what was the compensation third round pick we'll take that every time but then you have to
01:02
say as a Cowboys fan going why would the Steelers give away this wide receiver with just a third round
01:07
pick well there's two things here him and Mike Tomler at the end of the road they just couldn't work
01:10
together anymore and maybe he wants more opportunities which then you go well you're getting more
01:14
opportunities which you might have Aaron Rodgers as your quarterback but DK Metcalf I can't be with DK
01:19
Metcalf I got a shine now you're going with CD Lamb who's even a better wide receiver
01:23
than DK Metcalf and will command even more targets than DK Metcalf and also understand this
01:27
he wants to get paid he's in the final year of his contract now also I saw the agent put some good
01:32
words in his mouth look contracts not really big let me prove myself so you go to a football team
01:37
with Dak Prescott is going to throw for a lot of yards next year if he's healthy but you are not
01:40
the main target and you're trying to analyze what your worth is when you're not the main target at
01:45
this point some things don't add up right now but sometimes a change of scenery does work well
01:49
for players here but understand this NFL teams do not let young talented wide receivers go unless
01:55
there are major issues or errors that they feel that that wide receiver causes and you might be
01:59
getting at with George Pickens
