Xavier Legette Trade

Panthers Could Trade First-Round Bust After Heartbreaking Loss

3. Pittsburgh Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers made the playoffs with veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers slinging the ball to D.K. Metcalf. While both players proved they’ve still got something left in their tank, they’re both on the older side – especially Rodgers. Even if the four-time MVP returns for the 2026 season, Pittsburgh needs to think of ways to get younger, and a Xavier Legette trade could be the right move to make.

While Legette hasn’t lived up to his draft capital with the Panthers, a team like Pittsburgh might be able to get the most out of him. The Steelers are the best in the league at developing wide receivers, and nobody can deny Legette’s raw talent.
