At the NFL League Meetings this past week Pittsburgh Steelers lead man Mike Tomlin eluded to the fact that the Steelers #2 WR slot is a wide-open race (#2 WR Martavis Bryant sitting out 2K16 on suspension). Who is he fooling as he is just not going to hand the job over and wants a healthy competition for the job.

That brings me to believe the job will be 3rd year to be and former Oregon State Standout WR and Track Man Markus Wheaton to win the job. You don't remember in last years camp one QB Big Ben Roethlisberger singing the praises about Wheaton as having the best camp of all the wide outs not named "Business is Booming" (referring to WR Antonio Brown).

Now the Steelers will have 2nd year to be Sammie Coates their middle round pick from 2K15 in the mix along with new re-signed Special Teams Star Darrius Heyward-Bey. Throw in a pick or two and Free Agent pick up TE LeDarius Green the Steelers Offense should be ever better in 2K16.

The Competition will start at who will be the #3 WR in the mix and that could be a job that fits Coates perfectly as this stage in his development...stay tuned!
