TE Ebron signs with Steelers for 2 years/$12 million

In 2018, Vance McDonald season was okay at best and never really made that next step in being a consistent favorite target of Ben's. He had 50 catches, 610 yards and 4 TDs which sounds like decent stats despite the fact he was okay at best. With Ben at the helm anyone lining up at tight end will get catches and red zone opportunities by default. Ebron is a better receiving threat than McDonald in every way so he'll be an impact player in this offense.

And at the very least, between Ebron and McDonald, we should be able to get full season of a heathy tight end.

Steelers have been rolling though TEs and I watched enough of Ebron to know it was not the QB... Stafford is solid.. he disappeared last year.. good TE would not just disappear.  I am not saying the Steelers should not have picked him up but for those that act that this is a game changer or a great upgrade.. look at the playing card....
