JUSTIN GILBERT SENT TO THE STEELERS
The Pittsburgh Steelers acquired cornerback Justin Gilbert from the Cleveland Browns for a sixth-round draft pick in 2018.
What does it give the Pittsburgh Steelers
The Steelers were desperate for more help at cornerback, so they decided to take a flier on Gilbert (a first-round pick in 2014). They traded with a division rival, which proves their level of desperation at this time.
What does it give the Cleveland Browns
The Browns never want to do the Steelers any favors, but they were probably happy to send underachieving Gilbert to Pittsburgh in exchange for a future draft pick. Gilbert was a bad draft pick for the old Browns regime.
Fantasy impact
Gilbert won't make much of an impact with the Steelers, so he won't be a fantasy factor in 2016.
