Steelers OC: 'Physical tools are all there' with Mason Rudolph

PITTSBURGH -- After nearly a month of offseason workouts as the new Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator, Randy Fichtner is digging his quarterback situation.

He has a franchise quarterback who wants to play another three to five years at a high level and a draft pick who needs time to develop but has major ability.

That's why Fichtner doesn't plan to micromanage his quarterback room led by Ben Roethlisberger and including third-round pick Mason Rudolph, who is going through a healthy rookie transition.

Still, Fichtner is mostly impressed by what he sees.
