Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette stated that he would not be surprised if the Steelers traded wide receiver Mike Wallace during training camp.
Fantasy Spin:
This is purely speculation, but it is worth noting that Wallace has no intention of signing his tender of $2.7M as a restricted free agent, and Pittsburgh is seemingly ready to move on after inking fellow receiver Antonio Brown to a new five-year deal worth $42.5M.
And the Steelers previously traded away a disgruntled receiver in Santonio Holmes back in 2010. Wallaces fantasy stock is currently in limbo and is best avoided as an early-round selection in drafts.
