It's sort of unrealistic for Ross and Eifert to work between the hash marks and us to think they won't have a lot of wear. They're fun toys while you've got em, just don't depend on them.
The last 2 receivers taken by the Steelers in the 2nd round (JuJu and James Washington) have body types that appear to me to be strong and stout making them tough to tackle once they catch the ball.
JuJu - 6'1 tall and 216 pounds
James Washington 6' tall and 205 pounds
The Steelers may be looking for a better shot at durability plus a tough to tackle running back type running quality after the catch out of their recently drafted 2nd round receivers.
It may be that the Steelers are purposely looking for this quality.
