With the Steelers offense primed to bounce back, fantasy numbers should see a jump. Here are the fantasy projections for the Steelers offense in 2020

With fantasy drafts ramping up, players should be aware of some of the Steelers’ top options when it comes to fantasy players. While the typical Steelers are already on many fantasy owners’ minds, having a concise list of projections makes the guessing game of fantasy slightly easier. As well, finding a quality player not just at the beginning of the draft but throughout it makes the odds of a deep playoff run even more likely.

For the list below, the Steelers top three RBs and WRs, as well as the top two TEs and their top QBs fantasy projections, will be looked at. When compiling the final scores, a PPR system will be used, meaning that players will earn an additional point for every reception they bring in. As well, these projections are based on roughly where I predict their stats to end up. These projections will be based on how these players have done in previous seasons as well.

While these projections aren’t set in stone, they should give a decent idea of how certain Steelers should produce in 2020. Assuming everyone stays healthy for the season, these players could prove to either be draft busts or steals depending on where they are projected to be drafted. The Steelers are primed for a rebound season on paper, and that should reflect in their fantasy draft positions. That said, some Steelers may be ranked too high still. That said, here are the realistic fantasy totals for the major Steelers starters.
