Now with Emmanuel Sanders gone, will someone like Lance Moore be able to garner enough attention to free up space for Brown? Will his number of catches and yards drastically drop? If so, by how much? It's hard to believe he'll be able to reproduce the same production as last season. Also, will he still be the #1 punt returner, or are they gonna back him off of those duties?

Lance Moore will most likely take Sanders role,then you have the rookie M.Bryant depends on his play during camp & preseason, from what I've heard A.Brown probably do punt returns. All that said I don't think Brown's numbers will drop, he should be around the same as last year.

What do the Steelers have for TE now? Is Miller back this year? I see Moore as a less explosive Sanders, but he seems to a reliable slot receiver. Bryant seems to have huge potential, but it's really up in the air as to how good he'll be. If the Steelers have a decent TE, if Moore can find some chemistry with Big Ben, and if Bryant can be effective, I think Brown should have a great year. If they have to rely solely on him though, I think teams will plan for it and he will have trouble repeating his numbers from last season.

Heath Miller is healthy, and they have Matt Spaeth behind him. We also drafted Rob Blanchflower to fight for depth with Michael Palmer and David Paulson. Our TE situation is okay. As far as Moore goes, he is going to be our 3rd WR in the slot and won't take that Sanders role. Markus Wheaton is penciled in as the starter on the outside replacing Sanders. Bryant is likely going to be our 4th WR and won't have too much playing time except maybe in Red Zone situations or in specific packages. Don't sit on Dri Archer as well. He is going to be used probably more than Bryant will this season as a RB and WR.

Good job COC you said it better then I did. Moore is not a bad replacement for Sanders is what I should have said he's a good route runner. Derek Moye didn't look too bad when he got a chance to play, from what I seen of him the kid caught just about everything thrown to him. Hopefully Wheaton will step it up this year, but I don't think there would be any problems taking Antonio Brown on your fantasy team..

He is going to be used probably more than Bryant will this season as a RB and WR. Matt Spaeth is a purely blocking TE though. He will have 0 effect in the passing game and will have 0 effect on what Brown does this year. If Miller goes down hopefully one of those other younger guys steps up as a receiving TE, because you won't find that in him. Although you likely know that. I honestly think they should remove Brown from the returner position and give it to Archer or someone else this season. Brown will have enough on his plate being the only returning threat from last year (not including Miller who was out all last year) and I think adding punt returns to his job will just add more stress on a guy who should just focus on being a receiver this year.

Matt Spaeth isn't purely a blocking TE. Sure, he is mostly a blocking TE, but his 6'8" frame is a nice thing to have in the Red Zone.

He has 364yards receiving in his 7 seasons. 9 TDs in those seasons.. he is averaging just over 1 TD a season as well as just over 50yards receiving per season.. He is a purely blocking TE..
