Rumor: The Saints offered the Steelers a 5th round pick and a future late round pick for Kenny Pickett. But the Steelers took the Eagles package instead.

So Saints are def looking for more options at QB. Was this before or after the Peterman signing?

Or they saw the chance to add a young guy drafted in the first round with a couple of cost controlled years left for super cheap.

Wouldn't have hated it and would have been a better backup than Peterson.

Basically, throwing a 5th rounder to have someone challenge Haener for the backup spot. Only downside is Pickett's contract is guaranteed, so would have made walking away a little more difficult if/when Haener (or rookie) beat him out. IMO, definitely not worth the 3rd rounder Philly gave up.

Heck, at 2 years/$4.5 million, not much of a risk. Not much more than league minimum.

Yea but Pickett isn't gonna settle for being a 2nd string for long. And with that would be a whole band of face painters claiming he could be the future of this org. and we'd waste another 5 years giving that bum a shot.

Sure looks like they got took. I mean a neck injury on a guy with history? I'm not rich or nfl or a doctor but I know that you can't confirm anything when it come to the neck and nerve pinch. "It hurts" "I'm dizzy" "I'm numb in my hand a little" all can be claimed and doctors can't prove it either way.

The source is a local sports radio guy in Pittsburg. He might be FOS, but its not like its that far fetched. Also this isn't a subject that generates alot of clicks so why would he be lying? "Irrelevant franchise offers irrelevant pick for an irrelevant back up qb".. You and prox are down bad after the Chase neck news huh?

But they didn’t want to offer a 2025 6th for Justin Fields who is the better player. Makes sense with this front office. I always thought the cold weather and wind of Chicago wasn’t Fields’ best place play. In a dome he might have actually showed something.

I’d burn one of those 5th rounders on Milton, from Tennessee. Dude has the big time arm and mobility. But…..no accuracy.

Can accuracy be taught?

Josh Allen says yes.
