Wallace and Smith-Schuster were declining in their final years with the Steelers before going to new teams. Wallace's yards per game dropped from 74.6 in 2011 to 55.7 in 2012, then he signed with the Miami Dolphins prior to the 2013 season.

"Aaron Rodgers has been very up front with the Steelers, and he was very up front with the Giants," Schrager said on Thursday's edition of "The Pat McAfee Show." "The Steelers are willing to wait, and I don't think Pittsburgh knows more now than they did before the draft."

The Pittsburgh Steelers have run out of patience with wide receiver George Pickens. The team has agreed on a trade that sends the talented but mercurial 24-year-old to the Dallas Cowboys.
