2014 Projections

Outlook

Fantasy owners need to watch Landry Jones closely. He has a chance to be the quarterback of the future for the Steelers if he can develop his pro game. Jones is going to compete with veteran Bruce Gradkowski for the primary backup job behind Ben Roethlisberger. He’s unlikely to win the job, but Jones may show enough for the team to keep him around again as a third-string quarterback. Jones has good accuracy on short and intermediate routes, making him a good fit for the Todd Haley offense. He needs to show better presence under pressure if he wants to play up to his potential as a pro.
