Fantasy football is just around the corner. Here is a breakdown of the five best Pittsburgh Steelers to draft in 2020.

The 2019 season was one of the worst fantasy seasons for Steelers players that I can remember. Once Ben Roethlisberger went down, the whole offense followed. It was a busted year for just about any fantasy owner who invested their stock into a Steelers player.

Even though 2019 was a bad year for them, we can expect the 2020 season to be a whole lot different. With a healthy Ben Roethlisberger, a hungry Juju Smith-Schuster, a rejuvenated James Conner, an emerging star in Diontae Johnson, and an elite tight end in Eric Ebron, the sky is the limit for this offense.

With all these playmakers, we might be looking at a top-15 season at their respected positions for all of them. There is no doubt about it, there is a different vibe from the Steelers players this offseason. I believe their hunger and drive will excavate the elite talent within all of them. They are all highly capable of being one of the best in the league, whereas they all were in 2018 (all pro bowlers aside from Diontae Johnson).

I believe all of these players will have fantasy value, but some a lot more than the others. I am high on taking some, and not so high on others. Here are the five best Steelers players that I believe should be drafted this and where I would feel comfortable drafting them.
