Patriots predicted to swing blockbuster trade for $94 million Steelers star

The New England Patriots will prioritize finding weapons for Drake Maye this offseason. They could land a young star through a trade with an AFC North team.

The Pittsburgh Steelers will have to decide who their quarterback is going forward and the uncertainty could lead to George Pickens wanting a change of scenery. Pickens has 2,841 yards and 12 touchdowns in three seasons with the Steelers. He has been vocal about targets and could be a trade candidate this offseason. Sportsnaut's Andrew Buller-Russ predicted the Patriots would trade for Pickens this offseason.

"The Patriots have a couple of young receivers in development, but Drake Maye is ready to produce now," wrote Buller-Russ.
