The NFL is truly unforgiving—and the Los Angeles Rams’ willingness to trade their superstar Cooper Kupp, just four years removed from his stellar triple crown season in 2021, further proves it.
One team’s trash is another team’s treasure, however, as while the Rams may want to trade Kupp to cut costs in 2025, the Pittsburgh Steelers could definitely use the assistance of the former All-Pro receiver.
Acquiring Kupp wouldn’t demand too much draft capital from the Pittsburgh Steelers, as he will be 32 years old by the time the 2025 regular season begins. Injury concerns could also lower the cost, potentially allowing the Steel City to send one or two Day 3 picks in exchange for Kupp.
Should the Steelers seriously consider acquiring Kupp, sending a 2025 fifth- and sixth-round draft pick to the Los Angeles Rams could seal the deal.
The Pittsburgh Steelers have long desired an elite, veteran wide receiver presence on their offense, and Kupp’s trade situation with the Rams seems too perfect to pass up.
