Should Steelers' Omar Khan Value Future 1st Round Draft Picks Over Trade Targets Like Brandon Aiyuk?

Locked On Steelers – Daily Podcast On The Pittsburgh Steelers

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are still rumored to be a potential trade partner with the San Francisco 49ers over Brandon Aiyuk. But should they if it involves a first round pick? That's a question Christopher Carter tackles on today's episode that examines the Steelers' draft history and why they should value first round picks over trades unless extreme circumstances like Minkah Fitzpatrick's trade in 2019. But what makes Fitzpatrick's situation different than Aiyuk is the timing and the cost of the players when they signed. Also, Chris gives his prediction on which of the Steelers' wide receivers will make it to the final roster, and how Pat Freiermuth can be used more in Arthur Smith's offense.
