4 trade packages Steelers could accept for ILB Devin Bush
By Andrew Falce
Steelers trade with Jets
Steelers get: Mims, 2023 fifth-round pick
Jets get: Bush
Now onto the more intriguing deals involving other players, the Jets find themselves in a similar spot as the Jaguars. They will want to aggressively add players this offseason to get the most out of Zach Wilson’s rookie deal, and their linebacker room is a relative mess right now. While C.J. Mosely is a fine starter, the rest of their linebackers leave a lot to be desired.
Besides Mosley is Quincy Williams, a former third-round draft pick of the Jaguars. While he easily had his best season as a pro, there is still plenty of work he needs to do to be a competent starter long-term. Jarrad Davis was penciled in to be the other starter, but injuries limited him to nine games. Bush would likely start over either of them at this point.
The terms of this deal get a bit more creative. The Steelers will almost certainly be adding a receiver or two this offseason, and Denzel Mims has seemingly been worked out of the Jets offense. He can win deep and provide a speedy element to the offense, something Pittsburgh is lacking. An additional 2023 pick is added to sweeten the deal as well in this player for player swap. Both teams move on from struggling assets in hope that a new home will yield better results.
