This tweet from Jordan Schultz (Fox Sports NFL insider) details that multiple teams have asked the Steelers about Pickens in trade discussions and calls the talented wide receiver "a name to watch this week." Schultz also reports that while the Steelers are not actively shopping Pickens, conversations have taken place.

This week is an important one as trade discussions are going on all over the NFL with the draft scheduled to start at 8 pm on Thursday. The Steelers currently hold the 21st overall pick in the first round. With a receiver as talented as Pickens being discussed in trade talks, one would have to imagine that the Steelers would be looking to move up in the first round if they were to trade away one of their best players.

Pickens is on the final year of his current contract and will be looking to sign a large contract next offseason.
