Best Fit: Pittsburgh Steelers

It is no secret the Steelers would like to add another receiver.

In addition to their reported interest in Adams, they were connected to Brandon Aiyuk before the San Francisco 49ers signed him to a long-term deal. The AFC North team is off to a solid start at 4-2, but the need for another impact receiver remains.

After all, George Pickens is the only wide receiver with more than 10 catches on the season. Tight end Pat Freiermuth (22) and running back Najee Harris (14) are second and third on the team in receptions, respectively. Pittsburgh needs another game-changer on the outside for quarterback Justin Fields.

There have even been some question marks about Pickens, as he played reduced snaps in a loss to the Dallas Cowboys and was fined for an explicit message on his eye black. Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette also reported “Pickens has shown up late for work on multiple occasions this season.”

Given that situation, the Steelers could use a veteran leader in the wide receiver room.

Hopkins can be just that as a five-time Pro Bowler and three-time first-team All-Pro who is in his 12th season in the league. He has 14 catches for 175 yards and one touchdown in five games this season despite poor quarterback play from Will Levis on the Tennessee Titans and could benefit from a change of scenery.

Trading for him would give the Steelers a veteran leader and a much-needed go-to option on offense.
