Here we outline potential needs/targets for the Steelers, share rumors and have plenty of discussion surrounding what could, and what likely won’t, happen on this Tuesday, October 30th.

Demariyus Thomas to Houston:
The #Broncos traded WR Demaryius Thomas to the #Texans… and play the #Texans on Sunday. The revenge factor looms large (plus, DT can sleep in his own bed)

Le’Veon Bell staying put...or at least not being traded:
Not that there was much doubt, but Steelers' RB Le'Veon Bell won't be traded, because he can't be traded, because he still hasn't reported to the Steelers' and signed his franchise tender as of 1 pm. Without signing by 4 pm today, he can't be dealt. So no Bell trade this season.
