2024 NFL trades: Why did Pickett, Ridder, Howell, Allen change teams? - ESPN+
It’s an ignominious end to Pickett’s time in Pittsburgh and an admission that he’s probably not an NFL-caliber quarterback. If you go back through the passers taken since the league moved to the slotted draft system in 2011, the list of players who failed to make it to a third season with the team that drafted them isn’t pretty. Pickett joins Brandon Weeden, Johnny Manziel, Paxton Lynch, Josh Rosen, Dwayne Haskins and Trey Lance as two-and-done with their original franchises. Barring a few preseason passes that had Steelers fans excited for Pickett’s future, it’s hard to argue with the decision.
