Heath Miller

Pittsburgh Steelers

No debt

The Steelers have been long known for their hard-nosed defense and ground and pound mentality, and the TE is mainly used for blocking purposes. Heath Miller is capable of so much more, but has accepted his role in the Steeler offense.  That $35 million they dropped on him this past July couldn't have had anything to do with it. 


heath big money


TEs who can block as well as they can catch are a rarity in the NFL, but Heath manages this combo better than most of 'em, and the Steelers know it.  He's averaged over 500 receiving yards and five TDs over the past two seasons, but managed to fall out of fantasy favor in '08 as Big Ben's numbers took a nosedive from his unreasonable '07 performance that saw him manage an unrepeatable 7.9% TD per attempt ratio.  Too bad blocking well isn't scored in fantasy.

2009 Fantasy Outlook

Roethlisberger only targeted Heath six times in the red-zone (out of 55 total passes) in 2008 (and again, three resulting in TDs).  The Steelers run plenty of two and three TE sets, so the presence of Matt Spaeth does not have us sweating.   What does have us sweating is the fact that we don't think there are enough yards or TDs to go around for Santonio Holmes, Hines Ward, and Heath Miller.  And the third option on a team that doesn't pass the ball a whole lot, has us rather luke-warm on this one.  Make Heath the 13th TE off the board this summer.

Breaking News

Pro Bowl: Heath Miller replaces Dallas Clark expand +

Colts tight end Dallas Clark will be skipping the NFL Pro Bowl this year due to the fact that he'll be playing in the Super Bowl a week later. Clark was replaced by Steelers TE Heath Miller on the AFC roster.

Pyro's Take:

Love to see that Heath made the squad here. He had an outstanding season and would have easily made the roster if it weren't for guys like Antonio Gates and Clark standing in his way. Miller far surpassed his career highs in both receptions (76, was 48) and receiving yards (789, was 566) in 2009 and was a key component in helping QB Ben Roethlisberger surpass his own career highs in completions, completion percentage, and yards this year.
