An easy regression candidate after a monster 13 touchdown 2018 season, injuries, the retirement of Andrew Luck, and a reduction in targets combined to sink Ebron last year. Largely underwhelming during his career, Ebron simply hasn't been a difference making player since being a top-10 selection by Detroit in 2014. If he can prove to be recovered from off-season ankle surgery, he definitely has a chance to be fantasy relevant in this offense. Big Ben has a long history of utilizing his tight ends, especially in the red zone, and that is where Ebron can use his frame to be most effective. 10 of his 13 touchdowns in 2018 came inside the 20, and with enough guys to spread the field, look for the Steelers to deploy Ebron on short and intermediate routes. Given a two-year 12-million dollar deal, Pittsburgh clearly expects Ebron to be a big contributor to the offense despite the presence of Vance McDonald. He's not a great player, but he's still very young, could fall into 50 receptions, and has a 5-8 touchdown ceiling. Being taken toward the end of early drafts, I do think Ebron ends up eventually being a touchdown dependent streaming option worth taking a shot on.
