In his weekly YouTube appearance, Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise joins host Adam Bittner to weigh Steelers GM Omar Khan's options if he can't complete a trade for San Francisco 49ers star Brandon Aiyuk. Would Khan be justified to feel content with names like Van Jefferson, Quez Watkins and Scotty Miller behind George Pickens? Or should he be looking at other options like the Seattle Seahawks' D.K. Metcalf, who played with QB Russell Wilson? Is Roman Wilson still a viable option as a No. 2 this year? And would a return for JuJu Smith-Schuster make any sense after he was cut by the New England Patriots this week?

Our duo tackles those questions, then gets into some Pirates talk. Why does Oneil Cruz seem to take so much criticism from fans and media despite being one of the few truly productive players on GM Ben Cherington's roster? Were manager Derek Shelton's comments this week about playing good baseball until this current 10-game losing streak too generous? And is Cherington failing by his own criteria after his farm system was rated poorly this week?
