Ryan Clark says the Steelers are taking the wrong approach if they decide to stick with Kenny Pickett over Justin Fields or Baker Mayfield. The Steelers will receive a 2024 third-round pick and two 2025 seventh-round picks in exchange for Pickett and a 2024 fourth-round pick , sources told Schefter.With the move, Wilson is the only quarterback currently under contract with the Steelers.
In a two-year career with the Steelers -- following six seasons at Pitt -- Pickett went 14-10 in 24 starts and completed 62.6% of his attempts for 4,474 yards. He also threw 13 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. Pickett was selected out of a subpar quarterback draft class to be the successor to Ben Roethlisberger. His tenure was highlighted by a handful of fourth-quarter comebacks and marred by inept and stagnant offenses and injuries.at halftime of a Week 4 game against the Jets, and a sterling preseason, Pickett's second year got off to a rocky start under offensive coordinator Matt Canada.
