The NFC East has a growing interest in Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Patrick Queen. In addition to the Dallas Cowboys,<\/a> the Philadelphia Eagles have also called the Steelers about Queen, per the Star-Telegram\u2019s Nick Harris.<\/p>\n

\u201cSounds like Pittsburgh is hunting down a mid-round pick,\u201d Harris tweeted late Monday night.<\/a> \u201cI personally think the best they can get is a fifth-rounder which would work in Dallas\u2019 favor (can\u2019t really give up a 4 or better). We\u2019ll keep a pulse on it. Nothing imminent, but worth monitoring at this point.<\/p>\n

Cowboys have been largely wiped out at LB. Been a tough day there in Dallas, no other way to put it.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m keeping an eye on Patrick Queen at the moment. A handful of teams have called Pittsburgh about a trade here (including the Eagles). Dallas has kept a hand in that mix for\u2026<\/p>\n

NFL Network\u2019s Jane Slater has also noted Dallas\u2019 interest in Queen, referring to it as a situation \u201cI\u2019m watching.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

Queen is entering the final year of the three-year, $41 million deal he signed before the 2024 season. That makes him a one-year rental and impacts his trade value. He\u2019s also had two up-and-down seasons with Pittsburgh. Harris notes the Steelers are \u201chunting\u201d a mid-round pick in return while believing Dallas giving up anything more than a fifth-rounder is an overpay.<\/p>\n

Dallas has spent the first day of the legal tampering period unsuccessfully pursuing free agent off-ball linebackers. Nakobe Dean, Quay Walker, Devin Bush, Tremaine Edmunds, and Devin Lloyd have all agreed to deals elsewhere.<\/a> That\u2019s putting the Cowboys in the trade market, though it seems they don\u2019t want to give up anything more than a mid\/late Day Three selection.<\/p>\n

The Eagles could also use help after losing Dean to the Las Vegas Raiders. Queen could find more success behind a beefy Philadelphia front featuring Jordan Davis and Jalen Carter, who could keep Queen clean and chasing the ball under well-respected defensive coordinator Vic Fangio.<\/p>\n

If Queen is traded, Pittsburgh will have its own hole at inside linebacker. Re-signing Cole Holcomb and likely retaining Malik Harrison gives the Steelers internal depth, but neither are full-time starters.<\/p>\n

Pittsburgh could look towards what\u2019s left in free agency, Leo Chenal and Kaden Elliss are the top names available as of this writing, or a strong draft class at the position. At the NFL Combine, the team met with Cincinnati\u2019s Jake Golday while Texas Tech\u2019s Jacob Rodriguez could also fit with a Day Two selection.<\/p>\n

For now, Queen remains a Steeler. But with so much trade smoke blowing, it seems more than plausible a deal could soon be made.<\/p>\n
