Former NFL GM confident that Steelers were close to landing star receiver during NFL Draft

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been the epicenter of trades throughout the NFL offseason.

Pittsburgh was part of three major trades in the NFL during the month of March. They traded wide receiver Diontae Johnson to the Carolina Panthers in exchange for a sixth-round pick and cornerback Donte Jackson, and shortly after traded quarterback Kenny Pickett to the Philadelphia Eagles, followed by the acquisition of Justin Fields from the Chicago Bears.

And they still may not be done.

Pittsburgh needs a No. 2 boundary receiver, and it’s likely they will acquire one via trade or free agency.
