Several big name fantasy studs Doug Martin, Lamar Miller, etc could be on the move in the near future. Alex Gelhar lists his dream landing spots for each free agent from a fantasy perspective.
Matt Forte to the Jets? Mario Williams to the Raiders? Chad Reuter says teams that are feeling particularly risk-averse this draft season could be drawn to these prospects. Players, coaches, owners and even officials fail to consistently grasp the NFL's catch rule.
Arizona Cardinals coach Bruce Arians came up with an elemental solution. Ben Roethlisberger cried when he got the news. Heath Miller was retiring from the NFL, ending a tremendously successful year collaboration for the quarterback and tight end. After 11 seasons, Steelers tight end Heath Miller has retired. Further, Spaeth was carted off the practice field with an injury on Wednesday, according to Mark Kaboly of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.
Depending on the injury's severity, the Steelers may have to look elsewhere, such as to fullback Will Johnson or tight end David Johnson, who is also on the PUP list at present, to take up Spaeth's blocking snaps and to catch a pass or six. Spaeth is still being evaluated , according to the Tribune-Review 's Ray Fittipaldo, though it doesn't presently appear like one that will sideline him for the long term.
His preseason availability, though, does come into question. Paulson is more of a receiving tight end, but his relative inexperience resulted in him getting little playing time last season.
He had total snaps last year, but the breakdown was a bit more similar to Miller's than Spaeth's, with as a receiver and in pass and run blocking. His receiving numbers were akin to Spaeth's, however, with seven catches for 51 yards. While Spaeth and Paulson can certainly handle Miller's blocking duties this season, neither is well suited to transform into as reliable of a receiving target. Paulson should have increased chances as a receiver, but the Steelers need to find someone else to handle the passes that would otherwise to go Miller.
A good place to start is with Antonio Brown. Brown, who had yards and five touchdowns on 66 receptions last year, has one important thing in common with Miller—he does most of his work over the middle of the field. Based on Pro Football Focus' charting subscription required , 25 of Brown's catches, of his yards and two of his touchdowns came between the numbers at a distance of zero to 19 yards down the field in Miller, who caught 71 passes in , for yards and eight touchdowns, had 49 of those catches in the same area of the field and earned of his yards and four of his touchdowns from them.
It seems to be a natural fit that Brown's targets, particularly over the middle, would increase to compensate for Miller's absence, however long it ends up being. There are drawbacks to sending Brown over the middle as often as Miller, though, and the key can be found in the two's yards-after-the-catch numbers from last year. Though both Miller and Brown were productive from zero to 19 yards deep midfield, Miller had yards after the catch to Brown's
