The Pittsburgh steelers enter the draft of the 2025 NFL armed with only six selections. Add to that a more aggressive managing director of Omar Khan and it is logical that the team is in motion, the day of the draft. The prediction of the trades is always difficult and depends on the board of directors and the offers, but to imagine what a draft agreement could look like, I present three commercial scenarios of the steelers below.
There is a typical minor movement of conservative Steelers. A moderate decision that simple to the organization more willing to be aggressive. And two major movements that would create serious weekend titles.
This should not explicitly approve an idea. It’s just to draw reasonable reasons for which a business could occur. And what it would look like.
Minor
Pittsburgh trades: No. 21, n ° 156
Houston trades: N ° 25, n ° 89
Why does it work: The Texans desperately need help on the left after exchanging Laremy Tunsil and Qb CJ Stroud crushed a season ago. In a lower draft class, they can try to move for someone like Texas Kelvin Banks Jr., Josh Simmons from Ohio State, or Josh Conerly Jr. Oregon could prevent Kansas City chiefs from jumping.
This would only make the steelers down four -seater, keeping them in front of the Baltimore ravens at n ° 27. This puts them behind the Los Angeles loaders in n ° 22, which can target the Michigan DL Kenneth Grant, but this trade gives the Steelers a selection of the 100 best. This could greatly contribute to saying, a wide receiver And Running back on the second day of the draft.
Moderate
Pittsburgh trades: N ° 21
Kansas City trades: N ° 31, n ° 66
Why does it work: A proposal similar to what we wrote yesterday. Chiefs would be a team looking to come to a draft where many teams are trying to exchange. Like Houston, Kansas City is looking for help in the left tackle after having a rotating disappointment door during their Super Bowl race. The rush of the Eagles passes has certainly exposed their faults.
On the old-fashioned trade values table, it could be too lively. But when you are a competitor of the Super Bowl like the Chiefs, it is worth being aggressive. They would still have another third round in N0. 95, make the movement justifiable.
Major
Pittsburgh trades: No. 21, n ° 156
New Orleans trades: N ° 40, n ° 71, n ° 112, 2026 2nd
Why does it work: The report indicates that the saints are not likely to write a quarter of a quarter to n ° 9. Instead, they could exchange the first round for one. If the steelers opt for a quarter of a quarter, they could exchange.
This is a major decision but also produces major transport. A second, third and fourth this season with a second round in 2026, giving them even more capital to make an exchange for a quarter-Arrière next year. If the Steelers entered in 2026 with a first, two seconds and potentially four Third rounds, they are very pretty.
For the saints, they can win an ACE player in the top ten and go up to acquire a quarter-arre without abandoning capital in the first round. It’s great.
Such an agreement gives the Steelers n ° 40, n ° 71, n ° 83 (their third original round), n ° 112 and n ° 123 between the second and fourth towers. And eight choices in total. The removal of nearly 20 places and the first round entirely (losing the fifth year option) is steep, but at n ° 40, the Steelers could always win a solid defensive line player like Tyleik Williams from Ohio State or Alfred Collins de Texas.
Pittsburgh trades: Wr George Pickens
New England trades: No. 38, 2026 4th
Why does it work: The draft day trade in Pickens Steelers cannot be excluded. A bad class of receivers could encourage teams to call Pittsburgh. It will take a strong offer to the Steelers to move it, but a second round is terribly tempting. The fourth of next year helps soften the pot.
An agreement like this essentially means that patriots must know that they are able to conclude a long-term agreement with Pickens. It will not be cheap. But they could use a long -term n ° 1 receiver and without any name in n ° 4 in total, Pickens makes a lot of sense. The head coach of Fort Mike Truebel is surely convinced that he can manage Pickens. It is difficult to say if he is right. But would not be the problem of Pittsburgh either.
