Miller is now two years removed from his career-season in 2010 when he caught 76 passes for 789 yards and six touchdowns. Over the past two years, he has been used as a blocker more frequently and that has hurt his opportunities in the passing game, as evidenced by his target average of 70.5 in 2010 and 2011. Miller will turn 30 during the season, the Steelers offensive line will likely feature a pair of rookies and new offensive coordinator Todd Haley hasn’t exactly featured the tight end position very much in his play calling. Miller’s fantasy value is likely to be based on his ability to find the end zone and he has only done that four times over the past two seasons. He rates as a low-end TE2 with little upside.

 Heath Miller may not be ready Week 1 -- Mon Jun 17 3:30 pm --
Recovering from knee surgery | Under OC Todd Haley a year ago, Heath Miller caught a team-high 71 passes — only the second time since 1966 a tight end topped the Steelers in receptions. But with Miller out indefinitely following knee surgery — he was injured in December — the Steelers might go into the season without not only their top downfield threat from a season ago in Mike Wallace but also their most reliable receiver in Miller.
If Miller can't start the season — and that appears to be a strong possibility — the starting tight end is likely to be Matt Spaeth, who is renowned for his blocking. (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review)
FF Today's Take: While Spaeth finished 2012 as Pro Football Focus' top blocking tight end, he has never has caught more than 17 passes in six seasons, including four with the Steelers. It's one reason to knock Ben Roethlisberger down a peg on fantasy cheat sheets as well, although Spaeth's blocking only figures to help rookie Le'Veon Bell find a few more holes in the running game.
