The Steelers have always seemed to have a stalwart catching passes in the Steel City. The Pittsburgh pass-catcher of the 30s was Bill Sortet. Elbie Nickel and Val Jasante led the end-of-the 40s, while Ray Matthews was the man of the 1950s. Buddy Dial, Gary Ballman and Roy Jefferson were stars of the 60s. The 70s started with Ron Shanklin ruling, but Lynn Swann and John Stallworth were revolutionary in that decade. The 80s were defined by Stallworth and Louis Lipps, while Yancey Thigpen and Charles Johnson made the 90s nice. In the 2000s, Hines Ward, Plaxico Burress and Santonio Holmes were the prize guys.
