Buy Or Sell: Connor Heyward will be more of a fullback under offensive coordinator Arthur Smith.
Explanation: Smith’s offenses tend to lean more toward the run game than most teams. They operate with fewer wide receivers and bigger bodies, with a lot of 12 personnel. Presently, Heyward is the only fullback body on the roster, though that could change.

Many of us thought that we could see Connor Heyward moving into more of a true fullback role last year. The Steelers did not re-sign Derek Watt, so they opened the door for that possibility.
