While the Pittsburgh Steelers landed a wide receiver in Mike Williams, not everyone agreed that they got a good deal. Despite buying from a team in a selling mode, they still coughed up a fifth-round pick for a player with 12 catches and no touchdowns on the season. Sure, Williams could step up with the Steelers in the second half of the season.
But the Steelers should have never allowed themselves to be in this position in the first place, says former NFL GM Doug Whaley. Speaking on 93.7 The Fan earlier this week, he went back to the Diontae Johnson trade, which he speculatively characterized as less about football.
