I wanted the Steelers to go after Watt after Rosie kept going down this past year. I'm glad I got my wish. I think he's gonna be an awesome fit for what we do. Now Snell has his FB of the future.
 
Nix has been injured the past 2 years. That might be why the Steelers didn't use a FB very much. Seems the analysts come up with stats and say the Steelers only used a FB X% of the time but NEVER take into consideration the injuries. I think Watt will see the field a decent amount, especially since he can catch out of the FB position.
