Cardinals: 5 Trade Scenarios for Patrick Peterson

Jason Bridge-USA TODAY Sports

3. Pittsburgh Steelers

Another Pennsylvania-based team that has a struggling passing defense on this list. The Steelers are in a hole right now as they’ve gone from top five at defending the pass to 27th in the league.

Artie Burns has been a liability as one of the starting cornerbacks and is being picked on at a constant rate. And with the lack of younger and more elite talent on the defensive backfield hurts them even further.

They’ve allowed five receivers to go over 100 receiving yards in a game through the first four games of the season. Including two against the Chiefs (Travis Kelce and Sammy Watkins).

Without consistent play at cornerback, the Steelers will continue to fall behind in their race to get back to the playoffs. Which is why they need Peterson so much.

The only problem is with the Le’Veon Bell situation always looming and wondering when he will be back. That money will cut into the acquisition of Peterson who’s going to be making $11.25 million this year.

Pittsburgh would need to figure out how to get a trade done for the Pro Bowler. But providing pieces to help Arizona’s quarterback of the future, Josh Rosen will help whether it be an offensive lineman or receiver along with a draft pick.
