Offensive line help for Cowboys?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>At this point, it seems like the outside world cares more about the Steelers&#8217; WR2 gig than team decision-makers do. The offseason revamp of their aerial attack brought in \ufeff\ufeff<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/players\/d-k-metcalf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">DK Metcalf<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff, who is a WR1, and tight end \ufeff\ufeff<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/players\/jonnu-smith\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jonnu Smith<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff, who joins \ufeff\ufeff<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/players\/pat-freiermuth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Pat Freiermuth<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff as a good pass catcher at that position. But after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/steelers-trading-wr-george-pickens-to-cowboys\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">trading<\/a> away \ufeff\ufeff<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/players\/george-pickens\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">George Pickens<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff, Pittsburgh appears to be banking on second-year pro \ufeff\ufeff<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/players\/roman-wilson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Roman Wilson<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff, who missed all but five snaps last year due to injury, and an aging \ufeff\ufeff<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/players\/robert-woods\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Robert Woods<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff to step up opposite Metcalf. If the Steelers want to finally break through their playoff doldrums, why not keep the party going with another veteran searching for a ring? Allen has dealt with injuries and struggled at times last year in Chicago, but he can still generate separation and would provide \ufeff\ufeff<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/players\/aaron-rodgers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Aaron Rodgers<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff with another experienced player who understands the nuances of the position. And while Allen and Woods are both 33, Allen&#8217;s last 1,000-yard season (2023) is a much fresher memory than Woods&#8217; (2019). Allen&#8217;s ability to play on the outside or slot would be a boon if \ufeff\ufeff<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/players\/calvin-austin-iii\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Calvin Austin III<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff and\/or Wilson struggle to connect with Rodgers. The Steelers have gone all in this offseason.
