He has done great things his first 3 years in the league, two 1,000 yd seasons, the first real deep threat the Steelers have had other than Santonio in I don't even know how long, etc. His play did significantly drop off the last half of the season though and while some of that can be attributed to Ben's injuries and the merry go round at offensive line, he got swallowed up in coverage fairly regularly.
I wouldn't be opposed to tagging him if they have to mainly because there's no one else they could justify using the tag on this offseason and I'd like to see those 3 stick together.
