This page lists all the 2026 Trades for the Pittsburgh Steelers. I’ve listed all of the NFL Free Agent Signing Grades here, which included the trades. Because I’ve begun posting polls for the trades, I thought it would make sense to list just the NFL trades here, so archiving the voting would be easier.

March 2026 – Trades


Steelers acquire WR Michael Pittman Jr. from Colts for late-round pick swap
The NFL is crazy. A year ago, if you polled a thousand NFL fans, all thousand would have said that Michael Pittman Jr. is a better receiver than Alec Pierce. Yet, the Colts just gave Pierce $116 million and sent Pittman packing for a late-round pick swap. What!?

Pittman isn’t a great receiver by any means, but he’s the perfect No. 2 possession receiver, which is exactly what the Steelers needed. Pittman will be a great Robin to Pittsburgh’s Batman (DK Metcalf), and yet the Steelers barely had to give up anything for him. What an incredible trade for the Steelers.

Grade for Steelers – A+
Grade for Colts – MILLEN
