Rams Eye Steelers' Stars for Midseason Trade

On March 22nd, the Los Angeles Rams are keeping a close eye on the Pittsburgh Steelers this season, hoping for a chance to snack some star defenders.

Pittsburgh's roster is getting older fast, with key players like TJ Watt and Jalen Ramsey both turning 32 soon and Cam Hayward hitting.

37 in May, recent additions, including a cornerback turning 30 and a receiver reaching 29 in October, adds to the age concerns.

Earlier this week, reports highlighted how the Steelers lineup might struggle by December, if health issues or performance dip.

The team has already made moves for wider receivers like Michael Pym and Junior and DK Metcalf, signaling a shift toward rebuilding.

Fans and analysts see this as a prime setup for a mid-season trade frenzy if Pittsburgh falls out of contention under their new coaching setup.

The Rams, with their own Super Bowl goals for 2026, have a history of bold deadline deals, like those for Dante Fowler, Jr. and Vaughn, Miller and Passwinning runs.

New details point to Watt or Ramsey as realistic targets for Los Angeles.

Watt could boost their pass rush with his sack potential, while Ramsey, a former Ram who won a Super Bowl here, fits perfectly in their secondary.

Both contracts are structured to make trades feasible if players want out.

Ram's brass scene patient, pausing other pursuits to watch Pittsburgh closely, positioning them for a game-changing addition that could elevate their defense to championship level.
