The Pittsburgh Steelers meet up to the acquire their desired individual.
In Pittsburgh, the Steelers appear to have concluded their search for additional veteran wide receivers, content with their current lineup as they shift their focus towards the NFL Draft. While they anticipate selecting a rookie starter early on, they have decided against making any further significant moves for wideouts this offseason.
This decision follows their failure to secure their top target. Despite acquiring Van Jefferson, Quez Watkins, and versatile player Cordarrelle Patterson in free agency, reports suggest that the team had aimed for a higher-profile addition.
“In his weekly chat, Dulac expressed his opinion, stating, ‘No, they have secured their veteran wide receivers with Quez Watkins and Van Jefferson.
If they opt to draft a wide receiver early, as I anticipate, I believe that will conclude their search.’ Later, he added, ‘And they’ve already secured two, although not the preferred one – Mike Williams.’ Unfortunately, Williams committed to the New York Jets before having a chance to visit Pittsburgh.
In response to missing out on him, the Steelers promptly added Jefferson and Watkins to their roster. It’s anticipated that they will focus on wide receivers in the top three rounds of the draft, potentially adding a starter alongside George Pickens. However, for those hoping for another veteran addition, it appears that opportunity has passed.”
