Player: ILB Elandon Roberts
Stock Value: Down
Reasoning: Elandon Robert’s starting job arguably lost some of its security when the Steelers drafted Payton Wilson. The third-year inside linebacker was one of the best defenders in college football a year ago, and now he’s here. While Wilson may not start immediately, he could still eat into Roberts’ playing time. Make no mistake, Roberts isn’t going anywhere, but Wilson’s presence is something of a threat.
Elandon Roberts seemed to be running the risk of falling into an afterthought early last season.
