WHen are we starting this guy with confidence? He's been Big Ben's first look in the redzone for 3 weeks in a row. They play NYJ this week. Anyone think he's good for a TD and 30-40yrds?

Bryant's value is extremely TD dependent which isn't a great thing going forward. While Wheaton and Bryant are completely different players (Wheaton isn't a threat to steal RZ targets), Wheaton will get some snaps and will cut down on the overall targets for Bryant limiting his potential for being less TD dependent.

If Bryant can prove to be more consistent in his targets/catches/yardage outside of his TD production, you will be able to start him with more confidence.

The one thing he has going for him is that the Steelers just forget about running the ball in the RZ and especially inside the 10. I'm not sure there is a team in football that throws more in the RZ than the Steelers (maybe the Colts). For a TD dependent WR, there might be no better situation in football.

I'll be starting him until his Week 12 BYE (NYJ, TEN in that span). Gordon will have to do after that...
