The Pittsburgh Steelers are reportedly doing their "due diligence" regarding current contract negotiations with veteran pass rusher T.J. Watt. And while a trade is not expected at this time, if the situation continues to worsen ahead of training camp, moving on is not out of the cards.

In an appearance on 93.7 The Fan on Friday, Steelers reporter Mark Kaboly said Watt would “probably” command a second-round pick in a trade, which the Steelers might consider if negotiations reach a “point of no return.”

The Pittsburgh Steelers have whispered it often to the media. The idea is simply to discover what the market for Watt would be in the eyes of potential suitors. Watt has been one of the premiere defensive players in the NFL since he stepped foot onto a professional gridiron eight seasons ago.
