Thoughts on Hines Ward? (1 Viewer)

Anyone think Hines Ward will be a serviceable WR2 with Big Ben coming back?

 

[thehornet]

i do. a WR3 with some WR2 days at the very worst.

He could be, especially in a ppr league. I think Ben will be out to prove something.

yup.

I agree too. Didn't Ward catch like 85+ passes last year?

 

[Hellfire Snail]

Should go back to what he has been every year. I want to see what happens with Mike Wallace.

Their defense had some key injuries last year. With the way they are flying to the ball this year, Pitts won't have a lot of garbage time passing yards. I'd temper my expectations this year.

I think Ward will be an excellent WR2 from here on out. Steelers may have a better defense this year than last, but Holmes is gone too. I doubt any of their options at WR3 will be as productive as Wallace was a year ago.

I just picked up Wallace as a FA. I've thought about going after Hines, but I'm not sure he's a noticable upgrade over Wallace. Kinda feels like Big Ben is gonna try to show the world he can still fling it 60 yards.

Good point. With that said and not trying to hijack but does this mean Miller gets more love?

I can't see Ben leaning on a TE more than the second- thru fourth-stringers who've started at QB the first 4 weeks.

I think that's it's pretty safe to say/assume............EVERYBODY on the Steelers offense gets a nice bump up with the return of Big Ben. Personally, I think Wallace is the biggest benefactor.

Yeah, this is exactly why I don't see him as more than a WR3. Unless something happens to the Steeler D, Ben won't be chucking the ball as much as last year.

Yes but he's 1 year older

Not a big deal. He is big ben's safety blanket.

So is Owens and Driver too right?

Also, last year, he was 1 year older than he was the previous year.
