Dri Archer to play bigger role in Steelers' offense

Pittsburgh’s offensive coordinator Todd Haley stated that he wants to get the speedy Archer more involved during his sophomore campaign. Haley said that it’s “important that we do have a role for him” and to “have a little patience and let him continue to develop” throughout the upcoming season. (NFL.com)

Fantasy Impact:

Archer had just 17 offensive touches in his rookie season and totaled just 63 yards. He’s one of the fastest players in the league but his 5-foot-8 size could pose durability issues. Archer is off the re-draft radar for 2015 but he could be an interesting acquisition in dynasty leagues if the Steelers do end up carving out a role for him. Still, his production would likely be too unpredictable to trust in fantasy.
