Aqib Talib Believes George Pickens Is A Top Three Receiver: ‘I’m Taking Him Over Everybody’

Today’s NFL seems to be the golden age for receiver play, especially with talents like Justin Jefferson, Ja’Marr Chase, Davante Adams putting up dominant displays year after year.

For former NFL cornerback Aqib Talib, who appeared on the Up And Adams Show Monday, one name deserves to be mentioned with the likes of those great receivers.

That would be Pittsburgh Steelers third-year receiver George Pickens.

In fact, Talib believes Pickens is a top-three receiver in the NFL right now.

“And this the take of the day. [George] Pickens is soaring. He’s now a top three receiver in our league,” Talib told host Kay Adams, according to video via the show’s Twitter page.
