The Pittsburgh Steelers forced the Dallas Cowboys to increase their price to land George Pickens. According to Dianna Russini of the Athletic, the Steelers originally only had an offer of a fourth-round pick on the table for Pickens. They held out past the NFL Draft, waiting for a team to give them a day-two pick.

The Pittsburgh Steelers and Dallas Cowboys have finalized a trade for wide receiver George Pickens. Dallas confirmed the deal on Wednesday after ESPN's Adam Schefter first reported the trade. Schefter noted Pickens' agent is also the agent for Micah Parsons, who is seeking a long-term extension from the Cowboys this offseason.
