6 best Steelers to build a team around after Ben Roethlisberger

4. LB Devin Bush

This is the one player on this list that I would really like to see more of, and there is a chance that he doesn’t quite turn out to be the player many thought he would. However, Devin Bush is a thoroughly talented football player and could be an excellent building block on the Steelers.

Still just 22 years old, Bush seemed to make strides in each game he played in. While the takeaways weren’t there for him this year before an ACL tear ended his second NFL season early, his ability to play well on all three downs is going to be a huge asset to this team.

Linebackers that run 4.43 don’t grow on trees, and his athletic makeup, age, and college pedigree make him one of the most interesting linebackers in the NFL. Obviously, Bush isn’t guaranteed to turn out to be a superstar, but he has the traits and the third-down ability required to be one of the best linebackers in the league someday. Who knows? He may have another decade of football to give this team, and I wouldn’t be at all shocked if that included several Pro Bowl seasons.
