George Pickens - Quiet against Cowboys

Anyone calling fields trash, look at the scheme, GP is the only playmaker on that offense and he wasn’t even out there all night. JF has 4 game sample size showing he can sling it. No effort by his team, and Pickens was lazy route runner at best

Arthur Smith casualty

Put in Russ and get this guy the ball

They going up against Vegas, either Russ or Fields, Pickens should be a solid WR2

Bro is the Kyle Pitts of WR. Idc how good he looks on the eye test, he doesn't demand targets. He hasn't finished as a PPR WR2 all year. You could get the likes of Drake London or Tee Higgins in a trade for him, having GP is a detriment to your team bro has zero ceiling and can't win you the week. Sell immediately

MHJ, Pickens, and McRib (maybe a random bench) for JJ and Kittle?

Pickens is good and he’ll have bigger games but he’s not dominating the best defensive players in the league yet like some people expected him too. He’ll be boom or bust in Arthur’s offense. Look for negative game scripts and weak secondaries for upside games.

Yea but u can’t rely on that

Pickens has fifth round ADP he’s too high to be on ur roster and boom or bust I think u gotta trade em

Just hold Pickens. Bench him if you wish some games. But fields can only go up from here and if they bring in a pocket passer like Russel Wilson if he ever recovers then better days are ahead for Pickens

He could have a big game vs LV

He shoulda had one last nite when the Boys were missing their best defensive starters

Hard to rely on anything in fantasy f’real. I’ve been hurt too many times over the years. 😭

And hard to rely on the Steelers coaching they clearly don’t trust fields enough to let him throw

Notice how they scored when they finally opened the playbook up and let him sling it

Last and this week

Fields imo is exactly what this team needs: dual threat athlete at the QB. This dude has a laser for an arm and has been relatively clean throwing the football this szn. They need to design some routes for Pickens cuz we all know he’s plenty capable of hitting him

Yet again we see a situation in which fields is not the problem: this run blocking doesn’t exist and Najee is being dragged for stuff that’s not his fault he is contacted the second he gets to the line and to make matters worse their passing plays r all shallow and don’t space the defense so everything is underneath

They need to open that playbook up and run some cover 2 beaters cuz they can with Muth

Yeah they could definitely use a little more offensive creativity. Hopefully Fields will earn more trust as the season plays out but Arthur would never allow a high volume pass offense I feel like. Haha

That’s why I think u gotta trade pickens

13, 4, 10, 16, 5

5 against a tattered defense
