Summary

The Steelers were the top ranked defense last year but weren't the top fantasy defense. Pittsburgh had great numbers against both the pass and rush but lacked fumble recoveries and interceptions, which hurt their fantasy production. They did do pretty well against getting after the quarterback, though, notching 35 sacks. This should be a very good defense once again with linebacker James Harrison leading the way. Ike Taylor is a shutdown corner in the secondary and safety Troy Polamalu continues to wreak havoc to the opposition. The special teams improved some with Antonio Brown providing a bit of a spark in the return game. He should continue to handle those duties this season and brings big-play ability to the position.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
Don't get too down on the fantasy numbers from last season. The Steelers can improve their interception and fumble recovery totals. That was more of a fluke than the norm for this team. The Steelers are a top-five fantasy unit.
