So what would it take to acquire Jennings?<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>According to Alex Kay of Bleacher Report, the Steelers would have to consider sending a 2026 third-round pick and wide receiver Calvin Austin III in exchange for Jennings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPittsburgh is flush with draft capital next year, having added a Day 2 pick from the Dallas Cowboys to the coffers during the Pickens trade. That 2026 third-rounder could be leveraged as part of a package that springs Jennings free from San Francisco, especially if the Steelers are willing to part with a replacement receiver in the deal,\u201d Kay writes. \u201cGiving up that selection from Dallas and Calvin Austin III\u2014a promising 2022 fourth-rounder who has largely underwhelmed during his time with the Steelers and needs a change of scenery\u2014should be enough to convince the Niners to move on if they refuse to extend Jennings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Steelers are currently scheduled to have 12 picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, but they\u2019ve been stockpiling them with the intent of moving up to grab their future franchise quarterback. So trading away a Day 2 pick could make that a little more difficult to do.<\/p>\n<p>Parting with another promising wide receiver in Austin could also be asking too much from Pittsburgh. Austin is heading into the final year of his rookie deal, but he has steadily improved every year.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Austin missed the entirety of his rookie season due to a foot injury, but in 2023, he had 17 catches for 180 yards and one touchdown. And then last season, he had a\u00a0career-high\u00a036 catches for 548 yards and four touchdowns.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/6.DXnJuihwmLZJ0fG8zGGA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTc2NTtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/steelers_now_articles_971\/f01fc61ed76f86ee5ff28f4ee7496590\" alt=\"Steelers\u2019 Potential Trade Package for 49ers WR Jauan Jennings\" width=\"788\" height=\"628\" data-nimg=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><dialog aria-label=\"Image Lightbox\" aria-modal=\"true\"><\/dialog><\/div><figcaption>Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III in a game against the Buffalo Bills on Aug. 17, 2024 \u2014 Ed Thompson \/ Steelers Now<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Pittsburgh is also going to have to give Jennings a raise if it acquires him.
