There has been lots of wide receiver news on Tuesday but unfortunately none of it has directly involved the Pittsburgh Steelers. First we get word that Davante Adams signed with the New York Jets, leaving the Steelers high and dry.

Now, the Cleveland Browns have traded away their best receiver, Amari Cooper to the Buffalo Bills. This is according to NFL reporter Jordan Schultz.

The Browns are off to a miserable 1-5 start and it looks like they are going to sell off players to get some draft capital since they are handcuffed to Deshaun Watson's massive waste of a contract.

Nevertheless, even though we are ok with the Browns giving up on the season, it stings to see another talented wide receiver hit the market and land with an AFC opponent. At the same time, the Steelers continue to flounder at the wide receiver position.
