Bookmakers Downplay Impact of Steelers George Pickens Trade
The oddsmakers don’t think the Pittsburgh Steelers trade of George Pickens on Wednesday morning will have a big impact on the outcome of their 2025 season.
According to odds updated by BetOnline.ag as of late Wednesday morning, the Steelers saw no movement in their over/under win total for the 2025 season, or for their chances of the making the NFL playoffs this year after trading Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys for a pair of draft picks on Wednesday morning.
The Steelers remain at over/under 8.5 wins for the 2025 season and are still +160 to make the playoffs.
Their odds of winning the AFC North, the AFC and Super Bowl LX all fell slightly. Pittsburgh moved from 4/1 to 5/1 to win the AFC North, but still have the third-best odds behind +200 Cincinnati and ahead of +2200 Cleveland.
The Steelers’ AFC odds moved from 18/1 to 22/1, but remained the eighth-best win the conference, behind the Buffalo Bills (13/4), Kansas City Chiefs and Ravens (7/1), Cincinnati Bengals (17/2), Los Angeles Chargers (12/1), Houston Texans and Denver Broncos (14/1).
The odds of the Steelers winning Super Bowl LX fell from 33/1 to 45/1, and that represented a good-sized drop in standing, from a tie for the 12th-best odds to today, where they have the 18th-best odds.
